The UK’s leading fencing and gate accessories manufacturer, Birkdale, has introduced two new screws to its SITEMATE range – the Flat Head Timber Screw and the Powerpro Flanged Hex Head Timber Screw.
With power and efficiency in mind, both feature unique characteristics to guarantee easy installation and long-lasting results.
The SITEMATE Flat Head Timber Screw features a torx flat head for improved clamping, a part knurled shank to prevent timber to timber jacking and a Type 17 point to reduce splitting and drive torque. The screw is finished with an olive grey coating, providing a neutral, clean finish suited to any outdoor aesthetic. Available in a range of lengths, the screws come in boxes of 25 or 50 and include a free torx bit for added convenience.
The SITEMATE Powerpro Flanged Hex Head Timber Screw is an ideal alternative to traditional coach screws for timber to timber applications, and fixing hook on plates to gate posts. The screws also have a Type 17 point for ease of insertion, to reduce torque and to help prevent timber splitting, along with a wax lubricant to increase drive and reduce drag. A variety of sizes are available - bags of 10 and boxes of 25 and 50 - with a hex socket driver included in each pack for easy installation.
Both the SITEMATE Flat Head Timber Screw and Flanged Hex Head Screw are tested with a neutral salt spray (NSS) test for 1,000 hours to ensure that they remain corrosion free over time.
