Product Information

Full details

The TIMco C2 Clamp-Fix Multi-Purpose Screws are engineered for demanding timber-to-timber applications, offering superior pull-out resistance and a secure connection. While their patented twin-cut technology and dual-angle thread provide exceptional performance, users should be aware that the specialized TX20 drive recess requires a corresponding bit for installation. Key features include reduced insertion torque, enhanced rust protection, and a design that prevents timber jacking for flush finishing.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What type of screwdriver bit is needed for these screws?

You will need a TX20 drive bit for the Precision TX drive recess.

Are these screws suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, the screws feature rust protection up to 20 times longer than standard zinc plating, making them suitable for many outdoor applications when used with appropriately treated timber.

How does the 'twin-cut technology' benefit installation?

The twin-cut technology allows for rapid screw pick-up and significantly reduces the likelihood of timber splitting, especially near the edge of the wood.

What does 'prevent timber jacking' mean?

Timber jacking is when the wood lifts upwards as a screw is driven. These screws are designed to prevent this, ensuring a more stable and flush connection.

Can these screws be used for metal to timber applications?

These screws are engineered specifically for timber-to-timber applications and are not recommended for metal-to-timber connections.

How many screws are in a box?

Each box contains 200 TIMco C2 Clamp-Fix Multi-Purpose Screws.

What is the primary advantage of the dual-angle thread?

The dual-angle thread maximizes clamping performance and holding strength, providing exceptional pull-out resistance crucial for secure joints.

Troubleshooting

Screw cam-out during installation

Ensure you are using the correct TX20 drive bit and that it is fully seated in the screw head. Apply firm, consistent pressure directly in line with the screw.

Timber splitting despite the twin-cut point

Verify that a pilot hole has been drilled, especially in very hard or dense timbers. Ensure the pilot hole size is appropriate for the screw diameter and timber type.

Screw not driving smoothly

Check for any obstructions or damage to the screw tip or thread. The lubricant coating might be compromised; try applying a lubricant to the screw thread if necessary.

Difficulty achieving a flush finish

Ensure the countersunk head ribs are making contact with the timber surface. A slightly larger pilot hole near the surface may help seat the head fully without splitting.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Significantly reduces timber splitting due to twin-cut point.
Easier and faster installation with up to 52% less insertion torque.
Superior durability and longevity with enhanced rust protection.
Prevents cam-out for precise and controlled driving.
Strong clamping performance and high pull-out resistance.
Facilitates a clean, flush finish without damaging the timber.

Cons

Requires a specific TX20 drive bit for installation.
Primarily designed for timber-to-timber applications; may not be optimal for other materials.
The yellow colour might be a consideration depending on the aesthetic requirements of the project.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To use the TIMco C2 Clamp-Fix screws, ensure you have a drill or impact driver equipped with a TX20 drive bit. Select the appropriate pilot hole size for your timber type, though the twin-cut point often minimizes the need for pre-drilling in softer woods. Drive the screw directly into the timber, utilizing the reduced insertion torque for a smooth installation.

Compatibility: These screws are specifically engineered for timber-to-timber applications. They are ideal for use in carpentry, joinery, construction framing, and general woodworking projects. Ensure the screw length (50mm) is suitable for the combined thickness of the timber pieces being joined.

Care: Store the screws in a dry environment to maintain the integrity of the polymer lubricant coating and prevent corrosion. While they offer enhanced rust protection, prolonged exposure to harsh, wet conditions without proper sealing of the surrounding timber may eventually affect their appearance.
