TIMco Hex Flange Advanced Coach Screws - Gold - 6.0 x 70mm (Pack of 10)

They feature an aggressive slash point tip for faster driving and reduced timber splitting, and a hex flange head for better grip, offering a modern alternative to older DIN 571 standards.

Yes, they are power tool compatible. You will need an appropriate socket or wrench attachment to drive the hex flange head.

The zinc-plated and passivated yellow finish offers enhanced corrosion resistance, making them suitable for many outdoor applications. For extremely harsh or coastal environments, additional protection might be advisable.

You will need to drill a hole suitable for a nylon wall plug, insert the plug, and then drive the coach screw into the plug for a secure fixing.

The hex flange head provides a larger bearing surface and a more secure grip for driving tools compared to a traditional hex head, and offers a modern aesthetic.

The 6.0mm diameter screw typically uses a 8mm or 10mm socket, depending on the exact specification of the flange.

Each pack contains 10 screws.

While designed for easy driving, extremely dense hardwoods may benefit from a pilot hole drilled to a slightly smaller diameter than the screw thread.

Ensure the aggressive slash point is correctly engaged with the timber and avoid over-tightening. The design minimizes splitting, but improper technique can still cause issues.

Verify that a suitable nylon plug has been used and was inserted correctly into the pre-drilled hole. Ensure the screw is fully engaged with the plug.

Use the correct size socket or wrench. Ensure a firm, non-slip grip on the hex head and avoid excessive force that could deform the head.
