Ulti-Mate Stick-Fit Woodscrews Tub 4.0 x 40mm (1000pk) - Gold

The Stick-Fit system is designed to 'grip' the driver bit more securely, reducing wobble and cam-out. This allows for stable, one-handed installation and a more positive driving experience compared to standard POZI or Phillips drives.

No, the drive system is 100% compatible with standard POZI and Phillips bits. However, the included 2x high-quality Stick-Fit driver bits will provide the most stable and efficient performance.

Yes, these woodscrews are suitable for fixing sheet metal to timber, providing a strong connection.

They are ideal for hardwood, softwood, and man-made timber boards like MDF, plywood, chipboard, and OSB. The Type-17 point helps drive through the hardest timbers.

The Type-17 'slash' point is designed to drive through most timbers without pre-drilling. However, for extremely dense hardwoods or to prevent splitting in very brittle materials near edges, a pilot hole may still be advisable.

The wax lubricant reduces the friction (torque) required to drive the screw, making installation faster, easier, and less demanding on your power tools. It also helps prevent the wood from splitting.

Each Trade Tub contains 1000 screws.

Ensure you are using the correct driver bit size and type (POZI/Phillips or Stick-Fit). Verify the bit is fully seated on the screw head. Apply consistent, firm pressure.

Confirm the timber is within the screw's intended application range. The Type-17 Slash Point is designed for hard timber, but extremely dense woods may benefit from a pilot hole. Ensure your drill/driver has sufficient torque.

Check the material's surface for obstructions. Ensure the drill/driver is perpendicular to the surface. For very hard materials, the countersink angle may not fully engage without slight splintering, though the double-angle head minimizes this.

Check for debris in the screw thread or material. Ensure your drill/driver is set to an appropriate speed and torque setting. The lubricant is most effective on initial insertion.
