What are exterior self-drilling screws?
Exterior self-drilling screws are designed to drill and fasten into thick steel in one operation. The self-drilling point allows them to penetrate heavy gauge steel without the need for pre-drilling, saving time on site.
These screws feature a durable exterior coating that provides corrosion resistance and helps protect against harsh weather conditions.
Why choose exterior self-drilling screws?
- Designed for steel up to 12mm thick
- No pre-drilling required, saving installation time
- Exterior coating resists over 500 hours salt spray
- Strong, reliable fixing for structural applications
- Available with or without sealing washers
With or without EPDM washer – which should you choose?
| Type | Best For |
|---|---|
| With EPDM Washer | External applications where a watertight seal is required, such as roofing and cladding |
| Without Washer | General metal-to-metal fixing where sealing is not required |
Available Sizes & Options
| Size | Type | Typical Use |
|---|---|---|
| 5.5 x 32mm | Standard / With EPDM Washer | Light metal-to-metal fixing where minimal penetration is required |
| 5.5 x 38mm | Standard / With EPDM Washer | General fixing into heavy section steel |
| 5.5 x 55mm | Standard / With EPDM Washer | Fixing thicker materials or layered steel sections |
| 5.5 x 65mm | Standard / With EPDM Washer | Deeper penetration for thicker steel or multi-layer applications |
| 5.5 x 80mm | Standard / With EPDM Washer | Heavy-duty fixing where extended reach is required |
| 5.5 x 100mm | Standard / With EPDM Washer | Long reach fixing through thicker materials into steel |
