Hexagon head screws with self-drilling point and bonded EPDM
washer for fixing composite roofing and cladding panels to structural
steel. Fine thread and TEK 5 point suitable for steel thicknesses from
4.0 - 12.5mm. High threads situated under the head for supporting
the top sheet of the panel. Tough three-stage zinc-ceramic coating
for superior corrosion resistance.
nstallation
1. Screws should be installed using a Tek screwdriver or cordless
drill with adequate power and a drilling speed of between 1500
– 2500 rpm. (IMPORTANT - Impact screwdrivers will damage
the threads and must not be used)
2. Use a 5/16" socket to install the screw perpendicularly into the
steel maintaining steady pressure without forcing the tool.
3. Stop inserting the screw as soon as the compression disc of the
bonded washer changes from convex to flat. Overtightening the
screw is liable to damage the thread particularly in thin steel.
