FAQs

What materials are these screws best suited for?

These screws are best suited for wood and plasterboard applications.

Can these screws be used outdoors?

While zinc plating offers some corrosion resistance, extended outdoor use is not recommended. Consider screws specifically designed for outdoor applications for better longevity.

What is the recommended screwdriver bit size?

The appropriate screwdriver bit size depends on the screw head type. Phillips head screws require a Phillips head bit. Ensure the bit fits snugly into the screw head to prevent stripping.

How do I prevent the wood from splitting when driving the screw?

Always pre-drill a pilot hole, especially in hardwoods, and adjust the driving speed and pressure.

What is the purpose of the yellow zinc plating?

The yellow zinc plating provides corrosion resistance and gives the screws a distinctive appearance.

What sizes of screws are included in the set?

The set includes 3.5x30mm, 3.5x40mm, 4x40mm, 4x50mm, 5x50mm, 5x60mm, 5x70mm, 5x80mm, and 6x100mm screws.

How should I store the screws?

Store the screws in a dry place to prevent rust and maintain organization for easy access.

Troubleshooting

Use the correct size and type of screwdriver bit. Ensure the drill setting is appropriate for the material.
