Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the clamping thickness?

The clamping thickness is 8mm.

What is the size of the screws?

The screws are 6.3 x 25mm.

What is the purpose of the EPDM rubber washer?

The EPDM rubber washer provides a weather-tight seal, preventing water from penetrating the roofing system.

What type of bit is required?

An 8mm hex head driver bit is required.

Are these screws suitable for all metal types?

These screws are primarily designed for metal roofing sheets. Check the material compatibility before use.

How do I prevent corrosion?

The Elementech coating provides corrosion resistance. Ensure that the screws are stored in a dry environment.

What safety standards do these screws comply with?

They comply with EU safety, health, and environmental requirements.

Troubleshooting

Screw won't penetrate the metal sheet.

Ensure the drill tip is centered and that you are applying sufficient pressure. Check the drill bit and screw head for damage. If necessary, pre-drill with a smaller pilot hole.

Screw spins and doesn't grip.

The hole may be too large, or the thread may be stripped. Remove the screw and try a new screw in a different location. Ensure correct driver bit size and adequate torque.

Washer is not sealing properly.

Make sure the washer is correctly placed between the screw head and the metal sheet. Over-tightening may also cause the seal to fail. Check for any damage to the washer.
