CREATIVE 81HWFZ #8 x 1 Hex Washer Head Self-Tapping Screw Zinc Plated

The CREATIVE 81HWFZ is a #8 x 1" Hex Washer Head Self-Tapping (Fast Thread) Screw with a zinc-plated finish. Designed for reliable metal-to-metal and metal-to-wood fastening, this screw features an integrated washer flange beneath the hex head that distributes clamping load over a wider bearing surface, reducing the risk of material distortion or pull-through on thin substrates.

Key Features:

• Size: #8 diameter x 1" length
• Head Style: Hex washer head — compatible with standard 1/4" hex drivers, sockets, and wrenches
• Thread Type: Fast thread (self-tapping / Type A sheet metal thread)
• Finish: Zinc plated for corrosion resistance in interior and lightly exposed applications
• Integrated washer flange increases bearing surface and improves load distribution without requiring a separate washer
• Sharp point pierces sheet metal without pre-drilling in most light-gauge applications
• Suitable for metal framing, HVAC ductwork, sheet metal fabrication, and general construction

The hex washer head design allows for high-torque driving with an impact driver or socket wrench, making installation fast and efficient. The zinc plating provides a cost-effective barrier against rust and oxidation for everyday fastening tasks.
