TechFast Light Duty Timber to Steel Roofing Screws 5.5 x 40mm Elementech Box 100

Forgefix TechFast Timber to Steel CSK/Wing Screws are specifically designed for the secure and efficient joining of timber to steel frame buildings. These innovative screws feature breakaway wings that enhance the drilling process by creating a clearance hole. This design protects the screw thread from engaging with the timber when making the initial drill through, ensuring a smoother installation.

Unique Design Features

- Breakaway Wings: The integrated breakaway wings ream a hole as the screw advances and detach upon making contact with the metal surface. This feature not only expedites the drilling process but also guarantees that the screw can effectively engage with the steel once the wings have detached.

- TORX Compatible Insert: The screws are equipped with a TORX compatible insert, which facilitates a higher transmission of power. This design feature ensures that torque is efficiently transferred from the tool to the screw, resulting in a more robust and secure connection.

- Improved Countersinking: The design includes recessed ribs that allow for enhanced countersinking, providing a cleaner finish and ensuring that the screw sits flush with the surface. This is particularly important for aesthetic considerations and ensures that the screws do not protrude, which might otherwise pose a safety hazard.
