• What makes the yellow zinc passivated finish special?
  The yellow zinc passivated finish undergoes an additional treatment process beyond standard zinc plating, providing superior protection against corrosion and environmental factors.

  Single threading offers higher pull-out values and faster insertion speeds, particularly when working with particle boards like MDF and chipboard.
• What materials can I use these screws with?
  These screws work effectively with a wide range of materials, including softwoods, hardwoods, PVCu, chipboard, MDF, and fibreboard.
• What size screwdriver bit do I need?
  You'll need a No.2 Pozi drive bit for optimal performance and to prevent cam-out during installation.
• How deep will the screw head sit in the material?
  The countersunk head design allows the screw to sit completely flush with the surface of your material, providing a smooth, professional finish.
