Lathe Screws, #8 X 1 In., 170-Ct.
Description
Teks Lath Screws are self-tapping fasteners engineered for professional and DIY projects that demand secure, reliable connections without pre-drilling. The sharp point and self-tapping threads allow you to drill, tap, and fasten in a single motion, reducing work time and effort even in heavy-gauge metal. These screws excel at attaching metal lath to wood or steel studs for stucco and plaster applications, securing pre-drilled metal brackets to wood framing, and handling a wide range of metal-to-metal and metal-to-wood fastening tasks.
The truss head with Phillips drive resists tool slippage and cam-outs even with old sockets and worn bits. The zinc-plated steel finish protects the job's appearance and provides durability. With 170 screws per pack, you have plenty on hand for both large projects and future repairs.
