TIMco C2 Clamp-Fix Multi-Purpose Screws - 8.0 x 250mm - Gold

The primary advantage is their superior holding strength in timber-to-timber applications, achieved through patented twin-cut technology and dual-angle threading, which also reduces timber jacking and enhances pull-out resistance.

While the twin-cut point technology is designed to minimize the need for pre-drilling and reduce splitting, it is often recommended for very dense hardwoods or when driving close to the edge of timber to ensure optimal performance and prevent splitting.

Timber jacking is the upward movement of timber as a screw is driven. These screws are engineered with a specific thread design that counters this effect, ensuring a stable and tight connection without lifting the wood.

The high-molecular polymer coating provides rust protection up to 20 times longer than standard zinc plating.

A TX40 drive is a type of internal Torx recess. It's used for its superior torque transmission and resistance to cam-out (the driver bit slipping out of the screw head), ensuring a secure and controlled installation.

Yes, the screws feature a high-molecular polymer coating that offers superior corrosion protection, making them suitable for exterior timber-to-timber applications.

The box quantity for the TIMco C2 Clamp-Fix Multi-Purpose Screws 8.0 x 250mm is 50 screws.

Ensure you are using a correct and fully engaged TX40 bit. Apply firm, consistent pressure directly behind the screw head. Check that the screw is not encountering an obstruction in the timber.

Verify you are using a TX40 bit. The polymer coating is designed to reduce torque, but very dense hardwoods may still require significant force or pre-drilling. Ensure the timber is dry.

The ribs beneath the head aid countersinking. Ensure the timber surface is not too hard or pre-damaged. Avoid over-driving the screw, which can strip the wood fibers.

While offering superior protection, prolonged extreme exposure can eventually affect the coating. Ensure screws are installed correctly and the surrounding timber is well-drained. For critical outdoor applications, consider additional protective measures if extreme conditions are expected.
