Automotive Self-Tapping Screws

Automotive self-tapping screws are used in car assembly to fasten the bumper, wheel arch liners, dashboard and interior trim elements. Hundreds of such fasteners are used in a single car.

Automotive self-tapping screws differ from standard fasteners. Most of them are black. The sizes are small: average diameter 4–5 mm, length 10–20 mm. Some products are supplied with a press washer — it ensures a tight connection and does not damage the body. The head can be designed for a cross-head screwdriver, a regular screwdriver, or a hex nut.

How to use

Before driving the self-tapping screw into a car part, a hole with a diameter smaller than the screw’s diameter is drilled. The exception is products with a drill-shaped tip: they do not require a hole, but need a drill or a power screwdriver with a special attachment.
