All “self-drilling” screws are considered “self-tapping”, but not all self-tapping are self-drilling
Why choose a Six-Lobe Torx Drive?
Torx drive screws provide higher torque transfer because the driving forces are transferred to each surface of the six lobes (wobble-free), instead of the four edges of the four edges on a phillips drive. Less overall force is needed to install these screws.
