Troubleshooting

Screw head stripping during installation

Ensure you are using the correct size driver bit and apply consistent, firm downward pressure while driving.

Fibre cement material cracking

Always pre-drill a pilot hole and ensure the drill speed is not set too high.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High resistance to rust and corrosion
  • Excellent holding power for fibre cement cladding
  • Durable construction for long-term exterior use
  • Convenient 100-count pack size

Cons

  • Requires pre-drilling for optimal results
  • Specific 130mm length may be too long for thinner boards
  • Silver finish may be visible depending on the application

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best results, always ensure that your drill setting is adjusted to a moderate speed to prevent stripping the head or shattering the cement board.

  1. Measure the thickness of your fibre cement board and the underlying substrate to ensure the 130mm length is appropriate.
  2. Drill a pilot hole slightly smaller than the 6.3mm diameter of the screw to avoid material cracking.
  3. Use a high-quality driver bit to match the head type for a secure, flush finish.
  4. Keep the screws in their original box and store them in a dry, cool area to maintain the integrity of the corrosion-resistant coating until they are ready for use.
