Benefits
- Grabber’s Pro-Fit™ # 2 Phillips recess is a precision recess designed for better bit engagement resulting in less wobble or strip-out.
- .40-in flat wafer head with nibs provides better holding power in cement board to wood or light gauge metal applications. Special nibs self-countersink as the screw seats.
- GrabberGard® 1500 hour exterior-grade coating provides additional protection against corrosion in most exterior applications.
- Alternating or high-low threads and an extra sharp 23° Streaker® point help Grabber cement board screws start faster and drive easier into wood or light gauge steel.
Recommended Application
Cement and high density board to wood or light gauge steel. Superior corrosion resistance.
Installation Guidelines
- Use a standard screwgun with a depth sensitive nose piece. Suggested screwgun specification for optimal performance – Size #8 - #10, up to 4,000 RPM.
- The head is fully seated when it is flush with the substrate surface.
- For metal applications, the fastener must penetrate beyond the metal a minimum of three full threads.
- Overdriving may result in failure of the fastener or stripout with the substrate.
