Cross Recessed Hexagon Head Tapping Screws

Cross recessed hexagon head tapping screws are a kind of screws that can be screwed into the work piece directly without tapping during the installation process, and it can tapping the threads on the connected parts by itself to realize the connection function.The biggest feature of  hexagon head tapping screws is its self-tapping ability, which saves the process of processing threads and improves the installation efficiency. The most important feature of cross recessed hexagon head tapping screws is that they are self-tapping, which saves the need for processing threads and improves installation efficiency.

The difference between cross head self-tapping screws and ordinary bolts

1.Head Shape And Driving Method

The head of cross recessed hexagon head tapping screws is in the shape of a cross slot and requires a Phillips screwdriver for installation and removal. The advantage of this design is that the screwdriver and the screw head fit better, can provide more torque when screwing, and is not easy to slip, so that the installation and removal of screws is more convenient and quick, suitable for a variety of occasions that require rapid assembly.

The head of Ordinary self-tapping screws is a one-word slot,using a one-word screwdriver to operate. The design of the one-word slot is relatively simple, but in the process of screwing, the screwdriver is easy to slip out of the slot,especially when encountering tighter screws or improper operation, which will easily lead to damage to the screw slot and affect the use.

2.Application Scenarios

Due to its easy operation and non-slip characteristics, cross recessed hexagon head tapping screws are widely used in various fields with high requirements for assembly efficiency and quality. In home decoration, they are used for furniture assembly, electrical appliance shell installation,etc.;in industrial production,such as electronic equipment manufacturing, automobile parts assembly, etc. are also often used.

Ordinary self-tapping screws: in some of the requirements of the tool is not high, limited operating space or screw specifications smaller occasions still have applications. For example, some simple wooden crafts, small plastic parts of the connection, etc., but the frequency of use is relatively low compared to cross recessed hexagon head tapping screws.

3.Appearance And Recognition

From the appearance, the cross groove head of cross recessed hexagon head tapping screws is more obvious and highly recognizable. In some products with high demands on appearance, the shape of the cross head is relatively more beautiful and neat, which can enhance the overall visual effect of the product.

Advantages

The threaded portion of cross recessed hexagon head tapping screws is the key structure, which typically has sharper teeth and a different pitch than regular screws, designed to cut into the work piece material and form threads more easily.

Cross recessed hexagon head tapping screws are made of high-strength steel,which undergoes a special heat-treatment process to give them high hardness and strength, enabling them to form reliable threaded connections on a wide range of materials.

Installation method

First of all, according to the material and thickness of the work piece to choose the appropriate specifications of the cross recessed hexagon head tapping screws,to ensure that the length, diameter and tooth type and other parameters of the screws and the work piece match.

Then use the appropriate tools, such as screwdrivers or electric screwdrivers, cross recessed hexagon head tapping screws aligned with the need to install the position, apply appropriate pressure and rotate the screwdriver, so that the self-tapping screws gradually screwed into the work piece. During the screwing process, pay attention to keep the screws perpendicular to avoid tilting of the screws, which may lead to insecure installation or damage to the work piece.
