High performance all purpose self-countersinking screw for fast accurate driving into softwood, ch...High performance all purpose self-countersinking screw for fast accurate driving into softwood, chipboard and most hardwood. Patented slots prevent splitting close to the edge. Ribs and tucks enable flush fitting without surface damage. The thread is lubricated for up to 40% reduction in driving resistance, requiring less torque. The needlepoint allows screws to penetrate most timbers without a pilot hole. The Pozi head and reinforced collar ensure quick driving without snapping or cam-out. The yellow tropicalised coating ensures superior corrosion resistance. This pack includes two Reisser Pozi insert bits.
This guide is for anyone using Reisser Cutter Pozi Screws, offering a high-performance solution for woodworking. The screws are designed for fast and accurate driving, minimizing splitting and surface damage. However, optimal results depend on using the correct screw size and appropriate driving technique.

FAQs
What type of screwdriver bit do I need?
You need a Pozidriv (PZ) bit. The correct size will match the screw head.
Do I need to pre-drill holes?
Pre-drilling is recommended for hardwoods to prevent splitting. For softwoods and chipboard, it may not be necessary, but it's always good practice.
What is the benefit of the yellow coating?
The yellow tropicalised coating provides superior corrosion resistance.
What materials can I use these screws on?
These screws are suitable for use on softwood, chipboard, and most hardwoods.
What is the purpose of the needlepoint?
The needlepoint allows the screws to penetrate most timbers without the need for a pilot hole, increasing efficiency.
What does 'self-countersinking' mean?
Self-countersinking means the screw head is designed to sit flush with the surface of the material without the need for a separate countersinking step.
Troubleshooting
Screw head stripping during driving.
Ensure the correct size Pozidriv bit is used. Reduce driving speed and pressure.
Wood splitting when driving screws.
Pre-drill pilot holes, especially in hardwoods. Ensure the screw is aligned correctly.
Screw not countersinking flush.
Ensure the correct screw length is used. Check for obstructions in the screw hole.
