Benefits

  • Grabber’s Pro-Fit™ # 2 Phillips recess is a precision recess designed for better bit engagement resulting in less wobble or strip-out.
  • Thin wafer head design provides for a larger load bearing surface and better holding power in sheathing to heavy gauge metal applications.
  • Grabber heavy gauge sheathing screws begin with the best available materials and conform to strict manufacturing requirements in thread forming. Extra sharp threads mean screws will drive faster and will hold better.
  • Consistently formed extra sharp drill point starts and drills easily into heavy gauge metal framing. Special wings clear away sheathing material as the fastener drives in.

Recommended Application

Attach sheathing, 3/16" to 3/4", to cold-formed steel 33 mil or thicker.

Installation Guidelines

  • Use a standard screwgun with a depth sensitive nose piece. Suggested screwgun specification for optimal performance – Size #8 - #10, up to 2,500 RPM.
  • The screw head is fully seated when the screw head is flush with the surface of the material.
  • The fastener must penetrate beyond the metal three full thread pitches.
  • Overdriving may result in failure of the fastener.
