Head: #3 deep recess Phillips drive provides positive driving. |
| Threads: 11 twin lead threads per inch. Twin lead threads are two complete sets of threads, one opposite the other. This provides faster drilling, and perpendicular entry into the deck. | |
| Corrosion Protection: TRU-KOTE PC-3 coating meets or exceeds FM4470 corrosion standards and withstands 30 cycles of the Kesternich DIN 50018 SFW 2.0 test. | |
| Back-out Resistance - tapered wedge entry: The sharp rolled (Gimlet) point combined with twin lead threads penetrate steel or wood decks actually pulling and forcing the fasteners entry, wedging it tightly to provide back-out resistance. RESULTS! No costly call backs. | |
| Thread Point: A sharp rolled (Gimlet) point to drill wood or 20 ga. - 22 ga. steel. |
