Troubleshooting
Screw head stripping during installation.
Reduce the driving speed or use a higher-quality drill bit. Ensure proper alignment and apply firm, even pressure.
Screw not seating flush.
Check the pilot hole size. The head diameter is 16.08mm, and you may need to countersink the hole slightly.
Difficulty driving screws into hardwood.
Pre-drill pilot holes slightly smaller than the screw's core diameter to ease installation.
