Self tapping screws FAQ

What is a self tapping screw? A self tapping screw (also called a tapping screw or sheet metal screw) cuts its own thread as it is driven into a pre-drilled hole, so the hole does not need to be threaded first.
What is the difference between self tapping and self drilling screws? A self tapping screw cuts its thread into a hole that is already drilled. A self drilling screw has a drill point and makes its own hole in metal.
What is the price of self tapping screws in Dubai? ZARA self tapping screws start at AED 10.78 per box of 900 (CSK head #6 × 1/2″, ex VAT). Pan head screws start at AED 12.20 per box of 900 (#6 × 1/2″). See the price list above for every size.
Which head type should I choose? Choose a CSK (countersunk) head when the screw must sit flush with the surface, and a pan head when the head can sit on top.
