Counter Sunk
Countersunk heads are counter-sinkable in wood or even in prepared steel plates. The milling pockets reduce the fraying and splintering of the wood.
Cylinder head
Reduced blast effect Head is able to countersink deep into material Improved force transfer thanks to deeper drive
Fully Threaded
Fully threaded screws can withstand much higher forces acting along the screw axis because the load is held by the longer thread. The longer thread also increases shear capacities due to the rope effect.
Steel to wood and also applications between timber members are common. RAPID® screws have very high withdrawal capacities through axial loading and can be used for installation angles from 90° (side grain) to 0°, driven into end grain. Many applications are possible, e.g. reinforcement in tension, shear and also in compression, cost efficient solutions with crosswise paired screws or even arranged under 45° connections.
Compactor Tip
The compactor tip reduces the torque resistance by opening the hoe slightly bigger than the core diameter of the screw. This helps to prolong the battery life of the screwdriver for longer machine life and saves time during installation.
Compactor Tip.
Half Tip
The half tip ensures less deviation of the screw during install as well as reducing the splitting effect and therefore smaller edge and end distances can be achieved.
