ForgeFix Countersunk Decking Screws 4.5 x 55mm Green Box 200

These Forgefix single-threaded (ST) decking screws are expertly designed for optimal performance in decking applications. Manufactured with a Pozi compatible head, these screws boast enhanced capability due to their unique design, which is specially hardened and treated to resist corrosion. The innovative green treated finish ensures exceptional durability, offering over 1,000 hours of corrosion resistance against ACQ (Alkaline Copper Quaternary) treated timber, commonly used in construction and decking projects.

Application

The Forgefix decking screws are primarily intended for use in decking scenarios but are versatile enough for a range of exterior timber and fencing applications. Their design minimizes the risk of splitting timber boards, allowing them to adapt to seasonal changes in temperature and humidity. This adaptability is essential for maintaining the integrity of outdoor structures throughout the year.

Design Features

The Pozi head design distinguishes these screws from traditional Phillips screws. While they may look similar at first glance, Pozidriv screws feature four additional contact points, enhancing grip and reducing the likelihood of cam out during use. This feature is crucial for achieving high torque without slippage when using compatible tools. A noticeable line embossed at a 45-degree angle on the screw head indicates its Pozidriv compatibility, making it easy to identify and utilize.

This design ensures a quicker and easier insertion process, making them an ideal choice for both amateur DIY enthusiasts and professional contractors. The single-thread configuration delivers higher pull-out values, strengthening the overall stability of any decking project.

In addition to their superior performance, these screws are designed with the natural properties of wood in mind, allowing them to accommodate the wood's tendency to expand and contract. This functionality is vital for long-lasting outdoor applications, as it helps to prevent warping and damage over time.
