POINT TYPES
43 mil steel + 33 mil steel = Total thickness: 0.076 Point types include self-piercing or self-drilling. Although
many other types of tapping screws are available, includ-
ing thread-cutting, thread-rolling and thread-forming, it is
unlikely they would be considered for a construction ap-
plication since they require a pre-drilled hole.
The following table represents a typical screw selection chart and may vary by manufacturer.

A body diameter is specified by a nominal screw size. Table 2 provides the correlation between the common screw size
and the nominal body diameter of the screw. All body diameters should meet ANSI / ASME B18.6.4.
