350 Piece Twin Cut Tub

MPN: 50080C2CTUB

Barcode: 5056110825052

Overview:

The Timco C2 Clamp Fix 5.0 x 80mm Premium Torx Wood Screw is a high-performance fixing designed for demanding timber-to-timber applications. Manufactured from hardened steel with advanced C2 twin-cut technology, it delivers rapid bite, reduced splitting and exceptional clamping power.

A precision TX25 drive recess, double countersunk head with ribs and dual-angle thread combine to pull materials tightly together and resist jacking, helping to eliminate gaps between timber sections. Finished with a specialist Gleitmo high-molecular polymer coating, these screws offer very low insertion torque and greatly enhanced corrosion protection compared to standard zinc-plated screws.

Key Features

• Premium C2 Clamp-Fix design to combat timber “jacking” and close gaps between components

• Twin-cut point for fast, consistent pick-up and reduced risk of timber splitting

• Hardened steel construction for strength and long-lasting performance in structural applications

• Precision TX25 Torx recess for positive drive and reduced cam-out

• Double countersunk head with under-head ribs for clean, flush finishes and improved countersinking

• Gleitmo high-molecular polymer lubricant to cut insertion torque by up to 52% and increase rust protection significantly versus standard zinc plating

• Dual angle thread for high pull-out resistance and strong clamping force

• Partially threaded from 40mm to help draw timbers tightly together without jacking

Applications

• Timber-to-timber structural fixing where tight clamping is essential

• Joinery and carpentry work requiring strong, reliable screw connections

• Timber frame construction and general building applications

• Furniture manufacture and assembly using hardwoods, softwoods and sheet materials

• Decking, framing and other projects where reduced jacking and high pull-out resistance are important

Suitable Substrates

• Hardwood

• Softwood

• Chipboard

• MDF

• Certain plastics

• Thin sheet metal (pilot holes and appropriate technique recommended)

How to Use

• Select the correct bit (TX25) and ensure it is in good condition for positive drive engagement.

• Position the screw and drive at a steady speed, allowing the twin-cut point to bite quickly and pull into the timber.

• Take advantage of the partially threaded shank by fixing through the first timber into the second to minimise jacking and close any gaps.

• Drive the screw until the ribbed countersunk head sits flush with or just below the timber surface for a neat finish.

• For best results, use appropriate pilot holes in dense hardwoods or near edges to further reduce the risk of splitting.

Timco C2 Clamp Fix 5.0 x 80mm – Key FAQs

• What is the main advantage of C2 Clamp-Fix screws over standard wood screws?
  • They are specifically engineered to reduce jacking and pull timbers tightly together, thanks to their partial thread, dual angle thread and Clamp-Fix design.

• What does the twin-cut point do?
  • The patented twin-cut point gives rapid, consistent pick-up and helps reduce splitting, especially near edges or when driving into harder or drier timbers.

• Why use a TX25 Torx drive instead of a Pozi head?
  • The TX25 recess offers a more positive engagement, reducing cam-out, improving control and helping to transfer more driving force into the screw.

• What is Gleitmo and why is it beneficial?
  • Gleitmo is a high-molecular polymer lubricant coating that significantly lowers insertion torque and increases corrosion resistance compared to standard zinc plating.

• Are these screws suitable for hardwood and sheet materials?
  • Yes, they are designed for hardwood, softwood, chipboard and MDF. In particularly dense materials, pre-drilling may improve results and further reduce splitting.
