Description
These Forgefix General Purpose Pozi Compatible Screws with Countersunk heads are designed for a variety of applications, making them an indispensable tool for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts. The screws feature a zinc plating that significantly enhances their durability, ensuring they can withstand the rigours of various projects.
Applications
Ideal for use in multiple settings, these screws come in handy for ironmongery, electrical, and plumbing tasks. Their versatility allows them to be employed across various materials, including softwoods, hardwoods, chipboards, and fibreboards. Furthermore, they can be used in conjunction with various screw cover caps, providing a polished finish to your projects.
<a class='cat-link' href='https://bigshopper.co.uk/brand/zinc/'>Zinc</a> Plating Benefits
The zinc coating on these screws serves two essential functions: it creates a protective barrier against oxidation and acts as a sacrificial anode. This means that if the barrier is damaged, the zinc will corrode in place of the screw, prolonging its lifespan. Unlike iron oxide, which can compromise the integrity of the substrate, the zinc oxide formed during oxidation is a fine, white dust that does not weaken the surface. Left intact, this oxide can even offer added protection, similar to that provided to aluminium and stainless steel by their oxide layers.
Pozidriv Design
One of the standout features of these screws is their Pozidriv design. While similar to the classic Phillips cross-head screw, Pozidriv screws differ significantly. The inclusion of four additional points of contact, combined with their unique shape—characterised by the lack of rounded corners—prevents cam-out, allowing for greater torque to be applied. This design enables you to drive the screw correctly without slipping, provided you use the appropriate tooling in good condition. Distinguishing the Pozidriv from a Phillips screw is straightforward, as it has an embossed line at a 45-degree angle to the driver slots.
Countersunk Head and Twin Thread
The countersunk head is designed to sink flush with substrates, leaving a smooth, unobtrusive surface finish. Each screw is crafted with twin threads, which facilitate an effortless starting point during insertion. In addition, the extra deep insert bit recess allows for a quicker and more efficient insertion process, further enhancing ease of use. The combination of twin threads and a special wax coating not only increases the speed of insertion but also provides enhanced holding power, ensuring that your fixtures remain secure over time.
In summary, these Forgefix General Purpose Pozi Compatible Screws are an excellent choice for anyone seeking reliable, durable, and easy-to-use fastening solutions, making them a staple in any toolbox.
