With Spax screws, you can mount metal brackets, hardware, and thin panels onto timber cleanly and securely. The load-bearing pan head features a flat underside that clamps flush against the surface without pulling into the material. Thanks to the t-star plus T20 drive recess, your bit seats firmly to eliminate cam-out and transfer driving force with total control. The full-length thread across the 40 mm screw delivers substantial tensile strength and reliable clamping power in structural wood joints. In addition, the chrome-6-free wirox coating provides significantly higher corrosion resistance than standard zinc plating, while the 4CUT point reduces splitting and eliminates the need for pre-drilling in softwoods.
