Hi Allan,

I get 1/4 x 20 self taping screws from.
I think they are even stronger than the TEK screws.

My advice is to research this through your fastener supplier; I have seen charts on pull-out strength of various sizes and materials. I think you'll find that you can come up with a screw attachment schedule with which you'll be satisfied.
