Drillscrew or drill screw for thick metal
I am looking for ways to attach components to the floor of a truck.
The floor could be as much as 1/4" thick plate with 1/2 inch or so thick mat and sound deadening material. I want to be able to use something like a drill screw or a threaded insert for two reasons. One is that I want the person to be able to work alone and the other is that many times it will be difficult to impossible for someone to get access to the other side of the floor area. I would like the head of the fastener have a positive grip such as a torx, hex head or square drive. Any ideas? |
