Malco Bit-Tip® screws feature a unique drill and tap point that creates the optimal hole size for superior thread engagement and a secure fit. This design allows for one-step fastening, eliminating alignment issues and the need for separate drilling or tapping operations when working with materials like plywood, soft wood, drywall, or insulation attached to metal framing up to 0.100" thick.Constructed from high-quality, specially heat-treated steel and precision cold-forged for consistency, these versatile screws offer a reliable alternative to rivets, nuts and bolts, or spot welds. They can be installed efficiently using a standard 2500 RPM screw gun equipped with a depth locator, reducing the need for extra tools like drill bits or taps.
