Norandex Galvanized Hex Head Self-Drilling Screws, #8 x 1/2 in., 100 Per Bag
This is a bag of 100 Norandex #8 x 1/2 in. galvanized hex head self-drilling screws. The self-drilling point eliminates pre-drilling in light-gauge metal, making them a fast choice for gutter, trim, and accessory attachment. Choose from Almond, Pebblestone Clay, or Sierra Clay painted heads to match the installation.
Key Features:
- Self-drilling point: The drill point bores its own hole in sheet metal, so no pre-drilling is required.
- Hex head drive: The hex head provides a positive engagement for drivers and helps prevent cam-out.
- Galvanized finish: Galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance for exterior fastening.
- Matched colors: Available in Almond, Pebblestone Clay, and Sierra Clay heads to blend with matching trim and gutter finishes.
- 100 per bag: Each bag contains 100 screws, a practical quantity for repair and install work.
- #8 x 1/2 in. size: The #8 diameter and 1/2 in. length suit thin sheet metal and trim attachment.

Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Self-drilling screws are the go-to for gutter and trim fastening because they save a drilling step on every fastener. Match the painted head color to your trim or gutter system to keep seams unobtrusive. For thicker metal, verify the screw's drilling capacity before skipping pilot holes.
Wear eye protection when driving self-drilling screws, as the drill point and metal chips can eject during installation.
