The TIMco C2 Clamp-Fix Multi-Purpose Screws are designed for professional carpenters and builders requiring secure, stable timber-to-timber connections. Their key benefit is the prevention of timber jacking, ensuring a flush and strong joint. A potential consideration is the specific TX30 drive required, necessitating the correct tooling. These 6.0 x 250mm screws feature patented twin-cut technology, a dual-angle thread, and a advanced lubricant coating for efficient, durable fastening.

C2 Clamp-Fix refers to TIMco's specific design technology that focuses on providing strong clamping force and preventing timber jacking for secure joints.
You need a drill or driver that can accept a TX30 bit. Most modern power tools come with interchangeable bits, including TX30.
The high-molecular polymer lubricant coating significantly reduces the friction and torque required to drive the screw, making installation faster and easier.
Yes, they offer up to 20 times longer rust protection than standard zinc plating, making them suitable for outdoor applications where durability is important.
Timber jacking is when the screw pulls the wood upwards as it's driven, creating a gap. These screws are engineered with specific features to counteract this force, keeping the timbers flush.
These screws are specifically designed and optimized for timber-to-timber connections. Their performance in other materials like metal or plastic is not guaranteed.
The ribs under the head help the screw to sit flush with the timber surface by improving the countersinking process, resulting in a cleaner, more professional finish.
Ensure you are using a correctly sized TX30 bit and that it is fully seated in the recess. Apply firm, consistent pressure directly in line with the screw.
While designed to minimize splitting, for very brittle timber or near edges, consider drilling a pilot hole slightly smaller than the screw's core diameter.
Verify you are using a sufficiently powerful drill/driver. The lubricant coating should reduce torque, but very hard timber may still require more power. Ensure the TX30 bit is not worn.
Setup: Ensure you are using a power driver or drill equipped with a TX30 bit. Pre-drilling pilot holes is recommended, especially in dense hardwoods, to further reduce insertion torque and prevent splitting, although the twin-cut technology and lubricant coating minimize this need.
Compatibility: These screws are specifically engineered for timber-to-timber applications. They are compatible with most common timber types. Ensure your chosen drill/driver is suitable for driving screws of this length and diameter.
Care: Store screws in a dry environment to maintain the integrity of the lubricant coating and rust protection. Clean any debris from the screw heads before driving to ensure the TX30 bit engages fully.
