Grip-Rite Pro-Twist No. 12 x 1 in. Hex Washer Head Sheet Metal Screws deliver a reliable, fastener-ready solution for outdoor metal projects. Built with zinc-plated steel and a rugged Hex Washer Head, these screws are engineered to stand up to the elements while delivering a clean, professional finish. <-- Why choose Grip-Rite Pro-Twist -->
-
Pro-Twist efficiency: Optimized thread geometry and flute design help bite into metal quickly, reducing drive time and minimizing cam-out for a smoother install.
-
Self-Drilling and Self-Tapping: No pre-drilling required on thin-gauge sheet metal. The #3 drill point creates a clean entry and the coarse thread pulls securely into place, even when joining metal to metal or metal to approved substrates.
-
Hex Washer Head for a tight seal: The hex drive provides solid torque, while the washer seats flush to the surface, creating a neat, weather-resistant finish that helps seal against moisture.
-
Durable outdoor-ready finish: Zinc-plated coating resists corrosion in outdoor environments, extending the life of fastened assemblies—from sheds and panels to outdoor enclosures.
-
Ideal for outdoor sheet metal projects: Designed specifically for exterior use, ensuring dependable performance in roofing, cladding, HVAC ductwork, trailers, and metal sheds.
The No. 12 size and 1 inch length strike a balance between strong holding power and clean, low-profile installation. This screw belongs to the Grip-Rite Pro-Twist line, a sub-brand designed to deliver consistent performance across common metal fastening jobs.
