Hexagon head screws with self-drilling point and bonded EPDM
washer for fixing roofing and cladding to cold rolled purlins.
Coarse thread and TEK 3 point suitable for steel thicknesses from
1.2 – 3.5mm. Tough three-stage zinc-ceramic coating for superior
corrosion resistance.
Installation
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.
