Application Guidelines

• Use a PZ1 Pozidriv driver bit; an ill‑fitting bit will damage the head
• Drive at a perfect right angle to the surface; angled entry reduces holding power
• Ensure material thickness exceeds screw length by at least 2–3 mm to prevent breakthrough
• Drill a pilot hole in solid hardwood — recommended to reduce breakage risk
• Reduce torque as the screw nears full seating; avoid splitting the surface or snapping the head
• Choose stainless steel variants for permanent outdoor exposure
• Store in dry, moisture‑free conditions; keep the lid sealed once opened
