Strong-Point Timber Unslotted Indented Hex Washer Head Screws

The Strong Timber Unslotted Indented Hex Washer Head Screws are premier structural wood fasteners, meticulously engineered to offer a high-strength, efficient alternative to traditional lag screws and through-bolts. They are the ideal solution for heavy-duty timber applications where superior performance and ease of installation are critical.

Core Design and Performance Features

• Unslotted Indented Hex Washer Head: This design is built for high-torque applications. The large, integral hex head provides a secure drive with a standard hex driver or socket, virtually eliminating cam-out and stripping. The expansive washer head distributes the load over a greater surface area, significantly increasing the resistance to pull-through and eliminating the need for separate washers. The indentation helps center the driver bit.

• No Pre-Drilling Required: Featuring an advanced, sharp cutting point (such as a SawTooth® or Type 17 tip), these screws ensure fast, immediate starts and effortless driving into lumber. This self-drilling capability saves considerable time and battery life while minimizing the risk of wood splitting, even near board edges

• Structural-Grade Holding Power: The specialized bold/serrated thread design drastically reduces driving friction while providing maximum thread engagement and superior withdrawal and shear strength. These fasteners are structurally rated to handle the most demanding connections, including those in high-load scenarios.

• Extreme Corrosion Resistance: Available with advanced coatings (e.g., Double-Barrier, WAR-Coated, Hot-Dip Galvanized), these screws offer exceptional protection against rust and corrosion, making them suitable for all exterior and coastal environments. They are fully compatible with ACQ and other treated lumber for ground-contact applications.

Versatile Structural Application

These screws are indispensable for contractors and serious DIY enthusiasts working on large wood projects:

• Deck and Porch Framing: Ledger board attachment, post-to-beam connections, and framing in corrosive environments.

• Timber Construction: Joining trusses, rafters, posts, and large timber elements.

The Strong Timber Hex Washer Head Screws deliver maximum structural integrity with minimum installation effort.
