Description
The Forgefix Phillips fine thread, wafer head Drywall Screws are designed for optimal performance when installing dry linings to steel frameworks. These screws come fully equipped with a Phillips No.2 insert bit, ensuring ease of use and efficiency during application.
<a class='cat-link' href='https://bigshopper.co.uk/brand/durable/'>Durable</a> <a class='cat-link' href='https://bigshopper.co.uk/brand/zinc/'>Zinc</a> Plating
The screws are zinc plated, which significantly enhances their durability and prolongs their lifespan. This zinc coating serves a dual purpose: it forms a protective barrier that prevents oxidation of the metal surface and acts as a sacrificial anode in case of damage. Unlike iron oxide, the fine white dust of zinc oxide that forms does not compromise the integrity of the underlying substrate, making it an effective solution for maintaining a secure and long-lasting fastening. Furthermore, if the zinc oxide layer remains intact, it continues to prevent further oxidation, similar to the protective oxide layers of aluminum and stainless steels.
Self-Drilling Design
Incorporating a self-drilling hardened point, these screws are engineered to pierce through plasterboard and thin steel base structures without the need for pre-drilled pilot holes. This feature streamlines the installation process, saving time and effort while ensuring a secure fit.
User-Friendly Phillips Drive
The Phillips screw design includes four tapered slots that allow a Phillips tip screwdriver to effectively transfer torque. This design prevents over-tightening; when excessive torque is applied, the screwdriver tip slips out rather than damaging the screw head. This characteristic makes the screws reliable for various applications, reducing the risk of stripped heads and ensuring longevity.
Versatile Wafer <a class='cat-link' href='https://bigshopper.co.uk/brand/head/'>Head</a>
The wafer head of these screws is specifically designed to distribute the load evenly under the screw head, offering a firm positive fixing akin to that of a washer. This feature enhances the holding capacity when securing materials together, particularly in applications involving metal stud work.
Technical Specifications
- Fine Thread Specialist Screw Head: Countersunk Phillips Drive Bugle Fine Thread
- Finish: Zinc Plated
- Phillips Bit: Included with every box
- Application: Predominantly used for fitting to metal stud work
- Weight: 1.76 pounds
The Forgefix Phillips fine thread, wafer head Drywall Screws are an essential addition to any toolkit, especially for professionals and DIY enthusiasts working with dry linings and metal frameworks. Their combination of durability, self-drilling capability, and user-friendly design make them a top choice for ensuring strong, reliable installations.
