Related specificationsWhat is a Type B self-tapping screw?
A self-tapper with the standard spaced thread but a blunt, flat end instead of a sharp point - DIN point form F. It taps its own thread in a pre-punched or pre-drilled hole.
When would I choose Type B over Type AB?
Choose Type B where the hole is already formed and a protruding sharp point would snag, scratch or present a hazard behind the panel. The Type AB version of this screw is listed as DIN 7982.
