FAQs

What is the WIROX coating?

The WIROX coating is a surface treatment that provides excellent corrosion protection, making the screws suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.

What is the purpose of the 4CUT point?

The 4CUT point reduces the force needed to drive the screw in, minimizes wood splitting, and allows for precise screw positioning.

Do I need to pre-drill before using these screws?

No, pre-drilling is generally not required due to the design of the screw, which includes the 4CUT point. However, it is recommended for hard or brittle woods.

What bit do I need to use?

You need a T-STAR plus bit. Ensure the bit size matches the screw head.

Are these screws suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, the WIROX coating provides good corrosion resistance, making these screws suitable for outdoor projects.

What materials are these screws best suited for?

These screws are best suited for use with battens and squared timbers.

What is the advantage of the washer head?

The washer head design provides a larger bearing surface, which helps to distribute the load and create a flush finish.

Where can I buy SPAX Wirox T-STAR Washer Head Screws?

SPAX screws are available at most hardware stores and online retailers.

Troubleshooting

Screw head stripping during installation.

Ensure the correct size T-STAR plus bit is used. Reduce the driving speed and apply steady pressure.

Wood splitting occurs during screwing.

Pre-drill pilot holes if working with particularly hard or brittle wood. Use the 4CUT point to assist in centering the screw and reducing splitting.

Screw does not fully seat.

Check for obstructions in the screw hole. Increase the driving force while ensuring the bit remains securely engaged with the screw head.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
