Hillman Fasteners 47260 Self-drilling Screw Neoprene Washer 12pk

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 47260 is a zinc-coated hex washer head self-drilling screw with a neoprene washer, sized at 3/4 inch in length and No. 12 in diameter. The hex washer head allows for positive torque with a standard hex driver, while the self-drilling tip eliminates the need for a pilot hole in compatible base materials. The built-in neoprene washer creates a weather-resistant seal at the fastener point, making this screw well suited for exterior and light structural applications. Each box contains 12 screws. This fastener is commonly installed by roofing contractors, sheet metal workers, and general tradespeople working with metal panel assemblies or light-gauge framing.

This screw is designed for use in applications where a reliable, watertight mechanical connection is required between metal substrates or where metal meets other building materials. The zinc coating provides corrosion resistance for outdoor and semi-exposed environments. Typical use cases include metal roofing attachment, HVAC sheet metal panels, equipment enclosures, and light structural cladding. The neoprene washer compresses against the work surface during installation to prevent moisture intrusion at the fastener point.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-stock self-drilling fastener for use in metal roofing, sheet metal panel, and light structural applications requiring a No. 12 diameter hex washer head screw with neoprene sealing washer.

Installation Notes

Install using a hex driver bit sized to the hex washer head; a variable-speed drill or screw gun with adjustable clutch is recommended to avoid over-driving and damaging the neoprene washer. Drive until the washer is seated firmly against the work surface without compressing it excessively. Follow applicable building codes and manufacturer panel installation specifications for fastener spacing and edge distances. Wear appropriate PPE when working with sheet metal edges.
