Modified Truss Head Screws feature an oversized domed head with a flange, similar to an integral washer. Modified Truss Head Screws have a 100 degree undercut which creates a larger area beneath the screw's head for a larger bearing surface. Modified Truss Head Sheet Metal Screws are commonly used in applications fastening to wood.

Stainless Steel Lath Screws

305 Stainless Steel

Stainless Steel Phillips Modified Truss Head Wood Screws in this selection are made from grade 305 stainless steel. They are corrosion-resistant, durable and suitable for long lasting applications exposed to the elements.

Type 17 Point with Self Tapping Threads

Phillips Modified Truss Head Screws in this selection feature a notched Type 17 point with self tapping cutting threads. The Type 17 point aids in chip removal during installation, and the threads provide excellent retention in wood or soft materials making installation a breeze.

Oversized Truss Head

Phillips Modified Truss Head Screws get their name because the head style is similar to a truss head, but with an oversized head diameter. This keeps the low profile of a truss head, and adds a flange to distribute pressure across a larger surface area making these screws suitable for use with thinner materials, and preventing pull through.
