M4.2 & M4.8 Phillips Flanged Button Head Self-Drilling Screws — Galvanized Carbon Steel, Two Diameters, Seven Lengths

Finding the right self-drilling screw diameter and length for a mixed-material project shouldn’t require multiple trips to the hardware store. This product covers both M4.2 and M4.8 thread diameters across seven lengths — from 13 mm (approx. 1/2") to 50 mm (approx. 2") — so you can select exactly what your job demands.

Each screw is made from carbon steel with a galvanized finish for corrosion resistance. The flanged button head provides a wide bearing surface that distributes clamping load without a separate washer, and the Phillips drive is compatible with any standard power drill. Available in packs of 10 or 50 pieces per size.

Whether you’re assembling wood furniture, fastening metal panels, securing equipment, or tackling general DIY repairs, these self-drilling screws cut their own thread without a pilot hole — saving time and reducing the tools needed on site.

Compatible with wood, sheet metal, and general DIY substrates — suitable for furniture assembly, equipment repair, and light fabrication applications

✅ Key Features of These M4.2 & M4.8 Phillips Flanged Button Head Self-Drilling Screws

  • 🔩 Self-Drilling — No Pilot Hole Required: Sharp drill-point tip bores directly into wood and light-gauge metal without pre-drilling, reducing installation steps and tool changes.
  • 🛡️ Galvanized Carbon Steel: Zinc galvanized finish provides corrosion and rust resistance for both indoor and outdoor applications, extending service life in humid or variable-temperature environments.
  • 🔧 Flanged Button Head: Integrated flange acts as a built-in washer, distributing clamping load over a wider surface area — reduces pull-through risk and eliminates the need for a separate washer in most applications.
  • 📐 Two Diameters, Seven Lengths: M4.2 and M4.8 thread sizes across 13 / 16 / 19 / 25 / 32 / 38 / 50 mm — covers the full range of common light-gauge fastening tasks without buying multiple product lines.
  • 🗂️ Flexible Pack Sizes: Available in 10-piece or 50-piece quantities per size — order a small trial pack or stock up for larger projects without overpaying for screws you don’t need.
  • 🏗️ Broad DIY Application Range: Suitable for wood furniture assembly, metal panel fastening, equipment repair, and general DIY projects in home, office, and light industrial settings.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Do these screws require a pilot hole?

No. The self-drilling tip is designed to bore through wood and light-gauge metal without a pre-drilled pilot hole, saving time and reducing the number of tools needed for installation.

What is the difference between M4.2 and M4.8?

M4.2 and M4.8 refer to the outer thread diameter of the screw. M4.8 is slightly larger in diameter and provides a stronger hold in denser or thicker materials. M4.2 is better suited for lighter-gauge substrates or tighter clearance applications. Both are available in the same seven lengths.

What does the flanged button head do?

The integrated flange around the base of the button head acts as a built-in washer, distributing the clamping load over a wider surface area. This reduces the risk of pull-through in softer materials and eliminates the need for a separate washer in most standard applications.

Are these screws suitable for outdoor use?

Yes. The galvanized zinc coating provides good corrosion and rust resistance for outdoor applications in typical environments. For highly corrosive marine or coastal conditions, stainless steel fasteners are generally recommended for long-term exposure.

What screwdriver or bit do I need?

A standard Phillips #2 bit fits these screws. A power drill or cordless screwdriver set to moderate torque is recommended to avoid stripping the head, especially in harder materials.

Should I order 10 pcs or 50 pcs?

The 10-piece pack is ideal for small repairs, trial orders, or projects requiring only a few fasteners of a specific size. The 50-piece pack offers better value for larger projects or ongoing use. Both options are available for every size combination.

What materials can these screws fasten?

These screws are suitable for wood, sheet metal, and general DIY substrates. The self-drilling tip and coarse thread provide a secure hold across a wide range of materials commonly used in furniture assembly, equipment repair, and light fabrication.
