Designed for heavy (20-8) gauge steel applications where low profile head exposure is desired. Wafer head provides a greater bearing surface than pan or hex drillers, with a low-profile head exposure.
Hydrogen Embrittlement:
Grabber’s 10-, 12- and 14-gauge zinc-plated drill point fasteners are plated as prescribed in the ASTM F1941-10 Standard Specification for Electrodeposited Coatings on Threaded Fasteners, and post-plating baked according to the process articulated in SAE AMS 2759/9, Hydrogen Embrittlement Relief (Baking) of Steel Parts, Section 3.3.3.1, and SAE J78, which calls for a four-hour minimum time for baking out entrapped hydrogen after acid treating the parts.
Grabber’s 10-, 12- and 14-gauge drill point fasteners are also tested for hydrogen embrittlement by benchmarks outlined in ASME B18.6.4, section 2.9.1.4, Hydrogen Embrittlement Test, and the SAE J78 4.4.1 Hydrogen Embrittlement Test Criteria, under protocols articulated in ASME B18.18.2 Inspection and Quality Assurance for High-Volume Machine Assembly Fasteners.

Specifications
Application:Metal to Metal
Gauge:12
Bit Tip:Phillips Bit Tip
Head Type:Modified Truss Head
Thread Type:Fine Thread
- Grabber’s Pro-Fit™ # 2 Phillips recess is a precision recess designed for better bit engagement resulting in less wobble or strip-out.
- The modified truss head design provides a larger load bearing surface for better holding power.
- Grabber drill point modified truss head screws begin with the best available materials and conform to strict manufacturing requirements in thread forming. Extra sharp threads mean screws will drive faster and will hold better.
- Consistently formed extra sharp drill point starts and drills easily into heavy gauge metal framing.
- Use a standard screwgun with depth sensitive nose piece. Suggested screwgun specification for optimal performance – Size #6 - #10, up to 2,500 RPM.
- The head is fully seated when the bearing surface of the head is flush with the work surface.
- The fastener must penetrate beyond the metal three full thread pitches.
- Overdriving may result in failure of the fastener or stripout within the substrate.
