Troubleshooting
Screw does not drive easily
Ensure you are using the correct hex drive tool. Pre-drill a pilot hole in the timber, especially if it is dense or hardwood. Check for any debris in the screw's thread.
Screw head strips during driving
Use a driver bit that fits snugly into the hex head. Apply consistent, downward pressure while driving. Avoid excessive speed or torque, particularly at the start of insertion. Ensure the pilot hole is adequately sized.
Screw fails under load
Verify that the screw is being used within its certified capacity for structural timber applications. Ensure the correct screw size and type have been selected for the load. If a fault is suspected, contact the manufacturer for warranty claims, providing evidence of the failure and application.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Ensure you have the correct hex drive tool (included in the box) or a compatible driver bit for your drill.
Pre-drilling pilot holes in dense timber is recommended to prevent splitting and ease insertion, especially near the ends of boards.
Drive the screw straight into the timber, ensuring it is seated securely without over-tightening, which could strip the wood.

Certified to replace M10 coach bolts.
Compatible with standard hex drive tools.
Ensure the 6.3 x 140mm size is appropriate for your specific timber dimensions and project requirements.
Care:
The case-hardened coating offers excellent corrosion resistance. For prolonged outdoor exposure, periodic inspection for any signs of damage or wear is advised.
Keep screws in their original packaging in a dry environment to maintain their condition.
