Can I Use the Snap-Loc E-Track Self Drilling Metal Screws to Install On Thin Aluminum Floor
Updated 04/02/2021 | Published 03/31/2021
Question:
Hello, Trying to figure out how long of screws I need for the e-track install on an aluminum enclosed trailer Alcom. Inside of the trailer only seems to have white covering rather than plywood. Is 1-1/4inch screw too long?

I don't see any reason why you can't use the Snap-Loc E-Track Self-Drilling Metal Screws - Qty 20 # SL99FR to install your E-tracks and the 1-1/4" screw won't be too long. The screws won't stick down a significant enough amount that anything under where you're mounting would risk being punctured.
