FAQs

What size drill bit should I use for pre-drilling?

Use a drill bit slightly smaller than the screw's core diameter.

Are these screws suitable for use with hardwood?

While suitable for pressure-treated timber, pre-drilling is highly recommended for hardwoods.

What is the Tri-Lock thread?

The Tri-Lock thread expands the wood during insertion and then relaxes back around the screw, ensuring a secure and locked fix.

What does Net-Coat protection do?

Net-Coat provides high corrosion resistance, protecting the screws from the elements and chemicals in treated timber.

What is the DeckMark accreditation?

It signifies that the screws have been tested and meet the quality and performance standards set by the Timber Decking Association (TDA).

How many screws are in a pack?

There are 200 screws in the pack.

Can these screws be used with composite decking?

These screws are specifically designed for timber, and may not be suitable for composite decking.

Troubleshooting

Screw is difficult to drive in.

Ensure you are using the correct pozi bit. Pre-drill if the wood is hard.

Screw head strips during installation.

Apply more pressure and ensure the pozi bit is a snug fit. Reduce the drill speed.

Decking boards are moving after installation.

Ensure screws are fully inserted and tightened. Check if the timber is properly supported.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation: Use a pozi screwdriver bit that fits the screw head. Start the screw with the spiral point, and drive it in straight.
Pre-Drilling: While not always necessary, pre-drilling is recommended for very hard or dense woods to prevent splitting. Use a drill bit slightly smaller than the screw's core diameter.
Compatibility: These screws are designed for use with pressure-treated timbers, ideal for decking, fencing, and sheds. Ensure the timber is compatible with the screw length (40mm).
Care: No special care is required. Ensure that the heads are not over-tightened, which could damage the wood. Inspect your deck or fence periodically for any signs of damage or loosening.
