A self-tapping screw comprised of a shank (1) whose end on the setting side is tapered and a thread (2) with a cylindrical external contour. A pilot thread (3) is connected to the end of the thread (2) on the setting side; the pilot thread having a thread pitch width that diminishes in the setting direction (S) for providing better insertion behavior. The screw further comprises a trailer thread (4) with a diminishing thread pitch width (b3) for improving the loosening behavior. |
