Cape Coral & Fort MyersEngineered for Every Fastening Challenge
Six innovations that make Teks the professional's choice for self-drilling fasteners — from light-gauge sheet metal to heavy structural steel.
Self-Drilling Point
The original self-drilling screw design eliminates the need for pre-drilling. The integrated drill point cuts through metal and wood in a single step, saving time on every fastening application.
Metal-to-Metal Fastening
Engineered specifically for joining metal to metal, Teks screws feature hardened steel points and threads designed to penetrate through steel framing, ductwork, and sheet metal without walking or wandering.
Metal-to-Wood Fastening
Teks metal-to-wood screws combine a self-drilling point with coarse threads optimized for wood engagement. Attach metal flashing, brackets, and trim to wood framing quickly and securely.
Roofing Application Design
Purpose-built roofing screws with bonded EPDM washers provide weather-tight seals. Designed for metal roofing panels, these screws resist corrosion and prevent water intrusion at every fastening point.
Corrosion-Resistant Coatings
Teks offers zinc-plated, climaseal-coated, and stainless steel options to resist rust and corrosion in demanding environments, including coastal Florida applications where salt air accelerates degradation.
Numbered Point System
Teks uses a numbered point system (1 through 5) indicating drilling capacity through increasing steel thickness. Higher numbers drill through thicker gauge metal, making it easy to select the right screw for every job.

Choose the right Teks screw for every fastening application.
How to Choose the Right Self-Drilling Screw
Metal-to-Metal Screws
Light Gauge (up to 20 ga): Teks #1 point screws for sheet metal, HVAC ductwork, and light steel framing connections.
Medium Gauge (up to 14 ga): Teks #3 point screws for heavier steel studs, metal roofing purlins, and structural connections.
Heavy Gauge (up to 1/2"): Teks #5 point screws for thick steel beams, heavy structural steel, and industrial metal-to-metal applications.
Roofing & Wood Screws
Metal Roofing: Teks roofing screws with bonded EPDM washers — self-drilling point with weather-tight seal for standing seam and corrugated panels.
Metal-to-Wood: Self-drilling point penetrates metal, then coarse threads grip into wood framing — ideal for attaching flashing, brackets, and metal trim.
Concrete: Teks concrete screws for anchoring metal and wood to concrete, block, and masonry substrates.
