The metal screw is easily distinguished from the wood screw by its thread - the metal screw is threaded the length of the shank. The most popular type of metal screw is the type A screw, which is a self-taping screw used with pre-drilled metal with a thickness of 0.015" to 0.050".
Some of our metal screws are equipped with TEK type points, which means they are self-tapping and eliminate the need for pre-drilling.
