When should I use a thread forming or thread cutting screw?
Pontoon boat and I want to ride a pager on my console. I think the console is fiberglass that is approximately 1 / 8 inch thick. The locator is a mounting bracket with four holes in it to insert the screws (No screws included with the stand). The holes can have a # 8 or # 10 screws. After a quick check of the hardware, I could use (A) with the machine screw nut, (b) formation of thread, or (c) cutting screw threads. The thread of the threaded bolts training and interested me. When is it used?
Thread cutting screws thread cutting machine and eject chips as they are driven into the material. Thread Cutting Screws are taper and blunt points. The use of metals, plastics and plywood from .048 "to.625" thick. Requires hole drilled or punched. Slots Screws are threaded wires moving material instead of deleting it, since it is handled in the material, minimizing cutting chips. The use of metals, plastics, plywood and .050 "to .200" thick. Requires hole drilled or punched. Good luck!
