An undercut, sealing threaded fastener for engagement with an internally threaded workpiece, and a method of forming the same as provided. The fastener comprises a driver head and a shank extending axially from an undersurface of the driver head. The shank includes an intermediate unthreaded portion and a threaded portion defining a given thread form having a crest diameter and a given root diameter. An undercut groove is provided in the undersurface of the driver head, this undercut groove having an inner diameter no greater tha the crest diameter of the internal or female thread, and preferably also no greater than the root diameter of the external thread, and an outer diameter greater tha the crest diameter. An unthreaded shank portion is formed intermediate the threaded shank portion and the driver head and extends continuous with the inner diameter of the undercut groove. This unthreaded shank portion thus having an outer diameter no greater than the internal thread crest diameter and preferably not greater than the external thread root diameter. An annular sealing ring is engaged about the unthreaded shank portion and extends into the groove.
