The Ruspert Coating is a multi-layer protective finish that offers superior resistance to corrosion and weathering compared to standard coatings. It's tested to withstand 1000 hours in a salt spray test, ensuring longevity for outdoor applications.
These screws require an 8mm (or 5/16 inch) hex driver bit. A compatible bit is included in each box.
Yes, the hardened steel and Ruspert Coating make them suitable for use with most types of treated lumber, offering good resistance to the chemicals present in some treatments.
With their hardened steel construction, 7.0mm diameter, and 100mm length, they are designed for robust timber fixings and can be used for various structural timber applications where appropriate, provided they meet local building codes and load requirements.
The Hex Washer head provides a larger surface area than a standard screw head. This distributes the load over a wider area, preventing the screw from pulling through the material, especially in softer woods.
No, the green color is part of the organic coating and does not negatively impact the screw's performance. It's primarily an aesthetic characteristic alongside the protective Ruspert Coating.
Ensure the 8mm hex driver bit is fully engaged and of good quality. Reduce driving speed if using a power tool, or try using manual screwdriver for better control.
Pre-drilling a pilot hole, especially in dense hardwoods or near the edge of the wood, can help guide the screw and prevent it from veering off course.
Verify that you are using an appropriate power tool for the task. For extremely hard materials, a pilot hole is recommended. Ensure the screw is not hitting a knot or obstruction.
Inspect the screw for any damage to the Ruspert Coating that may have occurred during installation or handling. Ensure the wood is not constantly saturated and that the environment is as dry as possible.
