Applications of Wafer Head Screws

Benefits of Using 5 Tek Screws

These screws are coated with a layer of zinc to protect them from corrosion, which is particularly important in environments where moisture might be a concern. The galvanization process creates a barrier that resists the deterioration of the metal, thereby extending the lifespan of the fastener.

Shear studs come in various sizes and configurations, but certain standard sizes are widely accepted in the industry. The most common sizes range from 10 mm to 22 mm in diameter, with lengths varying typically from 50 mm to 150 mm. The choice of size depends on several factors, including the width of the flange of the steel beam, the depth of the concrete slab, and the anticipated loads.

2. Strength and Durability Tek screws provide a strong hold and can bear significant weight, making them suitable for both light and heavy-duty applications.

Tek screws are specially designed screws that feature a drill point at their tip. This drill point allows the screw to create its own hole as it is driven into the material, which is especially beneficial when working with thick steel. Unlike regular screws that require a pre-drilled pilot hole, Tek screws simplify the fastening process, saving both time and labor costs.

5. Low Maintenance Due to their corrosion-resistant properties, brass self-drilling screws require minimal maintenance over time. This can be particularly beneficial for installations that are difficult to access once completed.

2. Drill the Hole Using a drill bit that corresponds to the size of the anchor, create a hole in the wall. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's guidelines regarding hole size.

3. Fast Installation Quick curing times allow for efficient workflow and reduced downtime on construction sites.
