Overview
The Lawson 2524 hex head tapping screw is a proven industrial fastener combining a hex head design with an integral washer for simplified assembly. The 1/4-20 x 3/4 size delivers secure fastening without the need for separate washers, reducing assembly time and part inventory. Each box contains 100 screws, making this a cost-effective solution for production environments, maintenance departments, and repair shops.
Key Features
- Hex head design resists stripping and tolerates higher torque loads than slotted or Phillips drives
- Integral washer distributes load and prevents fastener pull-through on softer materials
- Tapping screw geometry cuts its own threads, eliminating pre-drilled hole requirements in many applications
- 1/4-20 thread pitch and 3/4 length suitable for sheet metal, composites, and light assembly work
- 100-pack quantity supports high-volume production and reduces reorder frequency
