Description
FUNCTIONING
1) The innovative step/washer cover head with SIT® drive (TX compatible) allows for optimum torque transmission, a tight and snug fit, and fast centering.
2) The aggressive shank gives the screw extreme grip with reduced drive-in torque; making the screw suitable for use in hardwood without snapping.
3) The asymmetrical thread enables the screw to feature a reduced setting torque, making it easy to screw in. Enjoy up to 30% faster screwing time due to the screws anti-friction coating.
4) A new pyramid shaped drilling tip reduces splitting of the timber and allows faster drilling; optimised for hardwood decking and cladding.
The stainless steel grade of the screws (304 and 316) gives the screws a high corrosion and weather resistance, increased fracture torque, and makes them suitable for outdoor use and close to water applications.
For best results, we recommend pre-drilling and pre-countersinking holes.
Pre-drilling may be necessary in extremely hard timbers.
For highly corrosive environments, we recommend the use of the 316 Stainless Steel coloured screw only (not vintage or black coated).

TIP:
Protection: Harsh chemical cleaners for timber may damage the screw surface. Please wash any residue off immediately for longer enjoyment.
Recommendation: Our black coated S2 decking screws are best used for surfaces with low mechanical stress. In decking areas with heavy foot traffic, we recommend the S2 screws with our silver stainless finish.
