Product Overview:

These 100mm Forgefast Torxfast screws set a new standard for wood fixings with their patented design and superior performance. Built for professional results, they feature a uniquely engineered thread pattern that drives smoothly through various materials while maintaining exceptional grip strength.

The screws excel in both practicality and performance, incorporating reinforced countersunk necks that significantly boost holding power. Their recessed ribs ensure clean countersinking while minimising surface dust during installation.

What sets these screws apart is their patented drill and drive thread technology. This innovative design reduces timber splitting, prevents 'jacking' and spinning of joined timber, and delivers superior pull-out strength for a more secure fix.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's):

What makes the Elementech 400 coating special?
This environmentally friendly coating lasts up to six times longer than standard zinc coatings and doesn't contain Cr6+. It's been salt spray tested for 400 hours, providing superior protection against corrosion.
Will these screws work with regular Torx bits?
Yes, these screws feature a universally accepted Torx-compatible drive system. However, each box comes with the appropriate Torx bit for optimal performance.
Why is the 35° bending angle important?
This specific angle prevents the screw from shearing when timber naturally flexes during use, making these screws particularly reliable for load-bearing applications.
What materials can I use these screws with?
These screws work effectively with PVCu, timber, chipboard, fibreglass, and MDF. Their sharp point and special thread design ensure reliable performance across these materials.
Are these screws suitable for outdoor use?
While they feature excellent corrosion resistance, these screws are specifically designed for interior applications. For outdoor projects, consider screws specifically rated for exterior use.
What makes the thread design special?
The patented drill and drive thread reduces timber splitting, prevents joint spinning, and provides increased pull-out strength. This design allows for smoother driving while ensuring a more secure final fix.
