With their ease of use, 2-inch self-drilling screws can also contribute to reduced labor costs. By speeding up the installation process, fewer labor hours are required to complete a project. This efficiency can lead to significant savings, particularly in large-scale construction endeavors. Furthermore, with fewer tools needed—thanks to the elimination of pre-drilling—there is less reliance on multiple laborers to manage different aspects of the fastening process.

3. Environmental Factors The choice of materials for self-drilling bolts, such as coatings or finishes, should consider the environmental conditions they will face, including exposure to moisture or corrosive substances.

1. Material and Coating Fasteners should be made from materials that resist corrosion and wear, especially if the finished product is subjected to moisture. Coated fasteners, such as zinc or epoxy-coated, can offer additional protection.
