What to look for in self-drilling screws with a hex head

Anyone looking for self-drilling screws 5.5 x 32 usually wants to fasten metal or thin sheet without pre-drilling first. The screw has a drill point with which it makes its own hole and then forms the thread. This saves a work step and is useful for mechanical fastening on the construction site, in installation and in industry.

The size stands for a screw diameter of 5.5 mm and a length of 32 mm. The hex head is intended for a socket wrench or a screwdriver with a socket bit, so you can apply good force without the bit slipping off quickly.

For which applications are these screws used?

Self-drilling screws are mainly used to fasten thin sheet materials to a supporting structure, for example in roof and facade cladding or on steel profiles. Whether this specific screw is suitable for your material and thickness depends on the construction you want to join. Always check this before ordering a larger quantity.

How to choose the right length and diameter

The length of 32 mm must be sufficient to drill through all layers to be joined and still leave enough thread to grip the underlying material. A screw that is too short does not hold sufficiently, and a screw that is too long protrudes unnecessarily. Therefore, measure the total thickness of the parts to be joined and choose the length accordingly.

Tools and processing

For a hexagon head, use a suitable socket or socket bit in a screwdriver machine. Work at a moderate speed and with constant pressure in the direction of the screw, so the drill point pierces cleanly. Set the screw straight into the material and do not tighten beyond what is necessary, to prevent damage to the thread.
