RS PRO Teks Screws


Introducing the range of RS PRO Teks Screws, a high-quality fastener solution for a fast and efficient way to securely join to materials together. They are best fitted with a high-speed impact driver thanks to the drill bit end and self-tapping thread. Each fastener is made from steel with a zinc coating, making them much more cost-effective than their stainless-steel counterparts, while offering a high level of protection against surface rust and oxidisation.

Features and Benefits:


  • This range of RS PRO fasteners is ideal for applications where a quick and efficient way of fastening materials together is required, and removes the need for time-consuming pre-drilling thanks to the self-tapping design suitable for use with an impact driver

  • Manufactured with a zinc finish, each fastener provides good protection against surface rust and oxidisation and offers good lubricity to the threads of the fastener

  • In addition to this, the zinc plated steel fasteners are much more cost effective than stainless steel and is also widely recyclable, making them a much more sustainable option

  • Available in a wide range of sizes, drive types and head shapes

Applications:


Self-drilling screws are designed to be used with a wide range of materials like wood and metal, and to join panels or pieces together. They offer a higher tensile strength than nails thanks to the thread which in turn produces a more secure fastening, making them ideal for medium to heavy duty applications. They are easy to install and can also be removed for disassembly or adjustment. Self-drilling screws are most commonly used for:
  • Carpentry construction like decking, railings and small frames

  • Metalwork and metal framing

  • Building work and construction

  • DIY
