Screw Products AXIS No. 8 X 1-3/4 in. L Star Horizon Curve Head Deep Sharp Structural Screws

Description

The AXIS structural wood screw is the next step in fastener design. Every facet has been evaluated and improved (patents pending). Our extra sharp fast start tip saves you time on site and the twin blades outperform the competitorﾡﾯs knurls. The turbine ribs ensure an incredibly clean finish. Its cup-shaped, countersinking head, provides unparalleled holding power and less risk of splitting the wood. The horizon curve head has been architecturally engineered to leave an elegant finish. For general outdoor use. For ground contact treated lumber, areas within one mile of saltwater, near swimming pools, exposure to corrosive chemicals, or other areas where corrosion is more like to occur. A slight curvature of the head for elegant, professional, architectural results. The finished ring underneath the head also provides a better finish by cutting the top fibers in the wood for an extra step in countersinking. Turbine Ribs cut quickly into the wood, leaving a professional, clean finish with maximum wood contact. The cup-shaped, countersinking head provides increased holding power and reduced risk of splitting. This set of knurls cuts fast to dramatically reduce friction and heat on the shank while reducing the load on the drill. They also provide better performance by removing debris faster than a standard fastener’s knurl. With sharp threads all the way to the tip, the fastener has an immediate grip for a fast start. The inset thread cut drastically reduces the splitting effect and minimizes the driving torque needed to engage the wood.
