The Rikä PTSR002 Endurance Timberdrive Structural Screw is designed for landscapers, gardeners, carpenters, and DIY enthusiasts seeking robust and durable timber fastening solutions for both interior and exterior projects. Its key benefit lies in its superior corrosion resistance and surface hardening, ensuring stability in all conditions, while a potential caveat is the need for pre-drilling in certain hardwoods.

These screws are designed for use in most timber applications, including decking, beams, rafters, sleepers, retaining walls, fencing, stairs, and floor joists. Pre-drilling is generally not required in common softwoods but may be beneficial in very dense hardwoods.
The Ruspert spray coating provides superior corrosion resistance, offering protection for up to 1000 hours in salt spray testing, making the screws suitable for both interior and exterior use.
Yes, these screws have a 8mm hexagon head. A compatible driver, such as a 5/16" hex socket bit, is required. A 65mm driver bit is included with the pack.
Yes, they meet EN14592:2008 standards, which are European standards for fasteners in timber structures, indicating their suitability for structural use.
Each pack contains 50 screws of size 6.7 x 90mm.
Absolutely. The Ruspert spray coating provides excellent corrosion resistance, making them ideal for outdoor projects like decking, fencing, and garden structures.
The Type 17 slash point helps to reduce the drive torque required to insert the screw, saving effort and reducing the chance of fatigue. It also aids in the screw penetrating the timber more easily.
Ensure your driver bit is firmly seated in the screw head and is not worn. Reduce driving speed and torque if using an impact driver. Consider pre-drilling if encountering excessive resistance.
Check that the timber is stable and not moving. Ensure you are driving the screw perpendicular to the surface. For initial engagement, start the screw slowly to ensure it bites into the wood correctly.
Pre-drill a pilot hole slightly smaller than the screw's core diameter. Ensure you are not over-tightening the screw, especially near the edge of the timber.
Ensure screws were stored in a dry place prior to use. Verify that the timber is not excessively acidic or chemically treated in a way that might react with the coating. For most standard uses, the Ruspert coating is highly resistant.
