TechFast Light Duty Timber to Steel Roofing Screws 5.5 x 150mm Elementech Box 50

Forgefix TechFast Timber to Steel CSK/Wing Screws are an essential component for securely joining timber to steel frame buildings. Engineered for durability and efficiency, these screws feature innovative technology that simplifies the installation process while ensuring a strong bond.

Designed for Efficiency

The screws are equipped with breakaway wings that create a carefully sized clearance hole, which protects the threads from engaging with wood when drilling through the material. As the screw penetrates, the breakaway wings ream the hole and then detach upon contacting the metal surface. This unique design allows the screw threads to engage seamlessly with the metal, enhancing installation speed and efficiency.
