Sheet metal screws for fast, secure sheet metal connections

Sheet metal screws are used wherever thin sheets need to be connected securely and efficiently – often under high time and cost pressure. The technology is particularly in demand in car body construction and housing connections. Industries such as mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, or telecommunications technology benefit from the fast assembly without additional parts.

In addition to sheet metal screws, OEB offers a wide range of connecting elements for a wide variety of applications and materials. Whether for particularly thin-walled sheets, high-strength constructions or automated series production – our connection solutions are tailored to your requirements. Each type of screw fulfills specific tasks in assembly technology and complements the range with well-thought-out special solutions. Find out about other screw types that have proven themselves in practice – from precise press-fit fasteners to time-saving self-drilling screws.

For our sheet metal screws, we only use high-quality materials that are characterized by strength, ductility, and corrosion resistance. These include steel, case-hardening, and quenched and tempered steels – tailored to your application in mechanical or vehicle engineering. We also adhere to the current requirements of the automotive and electrical industries for surface treatments, in particular the VDA standards. This ensures that every screw is reliable, standard-compliant, and durable – even under demanding conditions.

Sheet metal screws are cold-formed in a double-pressure process. They have sheet metal screw threads and all common head shapes and drives (PZ, PH, TX, combination slot or security drives). Typical dimensions range from Ø 3 to 8 mm with lengths up to 160 mm. The screws are available with high-quality surfaces – e.g. galvanized, chromated, or Delta-Tone-coated – in accordance with VDA specifications. All common documentation according to EMPB, VDA or PPAP is available on request.
