WoodSpur... the driving force
A decent wood screw is one of the most common pieces of consumable hardware. We use them by the handful on a daily basis for all-manner of fixing jobs and without as much as a second thought. We have been searching for a range of screws to meet the high quality and performance that our woodworkers were demanding - we have now selected the best.
We ran the WoodSpur screws through exhaustive tests with professional craftsmen and tradesmen - using torque drills in many different types of wood and situations - not just once but many hundreds of times.
We compared the performance and strength of our range of WoodSpur screws against the market leaders - we made improvements and now we believe we have the best!
Very impressed, sharp threads for a good drive combined with the self countersinking heads made for a top quality finish. Top quality screws at an amazing price Customer Review
Plated to protect against corrosion - Silver Zinc plating gives WoodSpur Trade screws good corrosion resistance, making them ideal for general indoor usage. The WoodSpur screws are also available in A4 (Marine grade) stainless steel for use outdoors, in a damp, humid environments (e.g. bathrooms) or in oak.
We have ensured Woodspur screws are of the highest quality, whilst still guaranteeing excellent value for our customers
Special features that make WoodSpur a better choice!
Plated to protect against corrosion
Premium WoodSpur screws are Zinc plated and undergo a further process of passivation. This gives them their distinct yellow colouring and greatly increases resistance to corrosion.
Double angle head
Beefing up the head where it meets the body of the screw make WoodSpur screws much stronger. This minimises the risk of the head shearing under the final tightening torque.
Heat treated
WoodSpur screws are hard and resistant to snapping with the correct tensile and torsional strengths to resist loads they are subject to.
Self countersinking head
Six ribs on the underside of the head help the screw self countersink and lessen the torque required for a clean flush finish.
Self cutting tip requires no pre-drilling
The tip cuts as it penetrates and the initial portion of the thread engages immediately. The sharp point helps when placing the screw and prevents skating. (We still recommend drilling pilot holes in very hard wood.)
Deep, sharp threads
The thread slices effortlessly through the timber without tearing the fibres, making for a much stronger fixing.
Suitable for use in soft or hardwood, chipboard, OSB or MDF
You can rely on a WoodSpur in all wood materials, natural or manmade.
Wax lubricated threads
After plating, WoodSpur screws undergo a further coating to reduce friction. Lower friction needs less power means more screws driven on a single battery charge.
Correctly formed recess
Whether Pozidrive or Torx, the correctly formed recess minimises the risk of cam-out.
Top Tips
Top tip 1
Maximum Overall Screw Length - approximately 3mm less than the combined thickness of the two boards being joined.
Top tip 2
Maximum Screw Holding Strength - a longer screw of smaller diameter provides more holding strength than a shorter screw of a larger diameter.
Top tip 3
Driving of Screws into Hardwoods - rubbing the screw with beeswax prior to driving will ease the process considerably.
