Benefits

  • The Phillips recess is a precision recess designed for better bit engagement resulting in less wobble or strip-out.
  • The Bugle Head screws are more evenly heat treated and tempered resulting consistent and reliable performance.
  • Scorpion® Bugle Head 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.
  • The extra sharp 23˚ Streaker® point design starts immediately and is much less likely to flop over.

Recommended Application

Multiple layers of drywall attachment to light gauge steel. Rigid insulation attachment to light gauge steel. Other compatible material attachment to light gauge steel.

Installation Guidelines

  • Use a standard screw gun with a depth-sensitive nose piece. Suggested screw gun specification for optimal performance - Size #6 - #10 up to 4,000 RPM.
  • The Bugle Head is fully seated when the top of the head is flush with the work surface.
  • The fastener must penetrate beyond the metal a minimum of three full threads.
  • Overdriving my result in fastener failure or strip out of the work surface.
