Product Description

Steel pan head sheet metal screws are 100% 410 Stainless Steel, one of the hardest forms of steel, allowing them to last longer than any other hardware available at this price point.
The hardware we offer is very durable and can be used both indoors and outdoors. It provides excellent rust resistance when used in water applications and is superior to regular steel.
Having bolt droppers around is a great tool for creating mechanical connections between sheets of sheet metal and water. Hardware constructed by Bolt Dropper is the highest quality available on the market and we are 100% confident that this is true. You can rely on them for all your projects because they are strong, corrosion-resistant, and will last for years.
The diameter of this screw is #6, the length is 5/8", the thread type is coarse (standard), the point is self-drilling, the head is a pan head, and the drive is Phillips.
No Hassle Lifetime Guarantee - we are so confident that our product is the best on the market that we offer a lifetime guarantee.

Selected User Reviews For #6 x 1/2" Self Tapping Stainless Steel Metal Screw, (100 Pack) Phillips Pan Head Self Drilling Screws, 410 Stainless Steel, Choose Size, by Bolt Dropper

These are the worst screws you will ever find! In general, I don't do reviews, but I'm making an exception this time around
3/5

In the past I have bought many bags of screws of various sizes with the same results. If you buy a bag of 100, you should expect only to get 20 screws. There is a 30 minute limit to do there jobs! There is a serious lack of metal in these parts. Even with a new bit, the heads will strip out and the tap part will shear off. There are also very common cases where it goes halfway in and strips itself off! Because you can't screw it in nor screw it out, you need to get a pry bar and try to pull the screw out so you don't snap it inside.
I always include all holes and I even pre drill them to give it the greatest chance of failing. Don't support this crap! Go somewhere else! 70% time!.

I wish the self drilling end wasn't there, because this screw would be excellent otherwise
4/5

In my opinion, 410 stainless is the best of both worlds on both counts, it is magnetic yet corrosion resistant. I wish that I could find other types of hardware like it. However, in order to be completely honest, there are some cons to this product The self drilling end sucks and there are never enough threads on these screws to hold anything. I bought a thousand of these and started using them, but there are not enough threads to hold anything and there should be more threads on these screws. It is far too short for this type of end. It may be used to drill sheet metal, but I don't see any other applications. Although I wouldn't purchase them again, I won't be caught with them Customer service is awful. Before I purchased this item, I asked them if they had any 410 stainless screws with full threads from bolt dropper. I haven't gotten a response yet in a couple of weeks.

It is not recommended to use magnetic screws on stainless steel
3/5

Thought I was buying stainless steel screws. If they were true stainless steel screws, the magnet would not pick them up sadly, I found out this by accident one project after I finished. I guess only time will tell how much rust will form on the screws in and outside settings.

It's a waste of time! Usually you do not need to drill a small pilot hole, but you can if you want to
5/5

In many cases, Phillips head screws do not retain their position in the bit as well as hex head screws. In order to perform a punch through, they will wander a little. This is not in opposition to screws, however. The fastener itself is what makes it that way. To fix myself, I had to buy Phillips heads The stainless tappers are excellent. They get the job done well.

It meets the specifications
5/5

Suitable for the job. I attached aluminum sheets around a tree so squirrels could not climb up to the roof. They would otherwise chew through wiring on the roof. It is not necessary for pilot holes to be drilled with self tapping screws, and they have a good hold on the oak.

A buyer should beware of an open bag which only had 49 screws rather than 100
3/5

I saw that the bag (not the shipping bag, but the bag that told the screws) was open and definitely not 100. I only counted 49 scrolls!.

I'm not sure whether the screw was real SS or a 100-piece pack
3/5

I would be okay if I had received the 100 ct at the time my order was placed, as stated by other reviewers, however, these are NOT SS, which would be okay for my purposes. As a result of delivery, the package description was changed to describe Therefore, I will have to pay $7 each for 25 magnetic screws. Three boxes of screws can be bought for $7 at the store, or a 100 ct of SS screws can be purchased for $10.

I can't believe it! Crackle pop! I don't like these
3/5

Attempting to piss you off and give you money are all these things are good at. Almost instantly after an engagement of the cutter, heads pop out. They strip out half way into the material and stay there most of the time! There's no way to fix it except pry it out with a bar. The striped threads in the middle prevent it from going further and will not allow it to back out.
Have you ever had a ton completely snap When you have a desired amount of screws, you will have to buy extra ones. My word is your bond.
