ForgeFix General Purpose Twin Thread Screws 1 3/4" x 10 Zinc Plated Box 200

These Forgefix General Purpose Pozi Compatible Screws with Countersunk heads are meticulously designed for increased durability and versatility across various applications. With a zinc plating, these screws are not only aesthetically pleasing but also built to withstand oxidation, ensuring a longer-lasting finish. The zinc coating acts as a protective barrier against environmental factors and, in the event of damage, serves as a sacrificial anode, thereby preserving the integrity of the underlying metal.

Applications

These screws are ideally suited for numerous applications in ironmongery, electrical, and plumbing settings. Their compatibility with various screw cover caps enhances their adaptability, making them a preferred choice for professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike. Whether fixing into softwoods, hardwoods, chipboard, or fibreboard, the Forgefix screws perform exceptionally well, providing reliable and robust fastening solutions.

Benefits of <a class='cat-link' href='https://bigshopper.co.uk/brand/zinc/'>Zinc</a> Plating

The zinc coating on these screws prevents the formation of rust and corrosion, unlike their iron oxide counterparts, which can deteriorate the substrate's surface integrity. The fine white dust formed by zinc oxide does not trigger such breakdowns and can, when left intact, provide additional barriers against future oxidation. This feature is akin to the protective oxide layers found on aluminium and stainless steel, making these screws a reliable choice for long-term use.

Pozidriv Design

The Pozidriv screw design is a significant advancement over the traditional Phillips cross-head screw. With four additional points of contact and a lack of rounded corners, the Pozidriv provides superior torque application and minimizes the risk of cam-out when used with appropriate tooling. The distinct line embossed at a 45-degree angle to the drive slots allows for easy identification and ensures that users can quickly select the right screwdriver.

Countersunk <a class='cat-link' href='https://bigshopper.co.uk/brand/head/'>Head</a> and Twin <a class='cat-link' href='https://bigshopper.co.uk/brand/threads/'>Threads</a>

The countersunk head design is essential for achieving a sleek and smooth surface finish, as it allows the screw to sit flush with the substrate. In addition, the twin thread feature enables an easy start when driving, facilitating quicker installation. This twin thread design also provides increased holding power, ensuring that your projects remain secure and stable.
