Richelieu THTDTT7158 PWR DRIVE FIT - Dual-Action Premium Trim Head Screws

Richelieu THTDTT7158 PWR DRIVE FIT - Dual-action Premium Trim Head Screws are engineered for unparalleled performance in trim applications, particularly excelling at assembling strong miters. This innovative screw features a unique drill tip that simplifies angle starts while significantly reducing the risk of wood splitting, making it suitable for both face screwing and side applications on standard 3/4-inch wood boards. One of the standout attributes of the FIT is its second thread, which operates at a slower pace than the first. This design creates a clamping effect that enhances assembly strength, compensating for the limited push of traditional small-headed trim screws. The FIT delivers both robust assembly capabilities and a discreet appearance, as its small head nearly vanishes into the material. Offered at a size of #9 x 1 5/8 inches, these screws come packaged in a box of 5000, making them a practical choice for larger projects. The corrosion-resistant zinc finish ensures durability, meeting IBC and IRC building code compliance. With a T-15 drive size and a Type 17 point type, the Richelieu PWR DRIVE FIT screws are a remarkable advancement in fastener technology, ready to elevate your construction projects to new heights.

PWR DRIVE FIT - Dual-action Premium Trim Head Screws

Power Drive is the new premium line of screw products from Reliable. The PWR Drive FIT is the trim head screw from that line, suitable for all trim applications but especially designed for assembling stronger miters. This screw has a very special drill tip to help with tricky angle starts and will outperform type 17 in preventing wood splitting. This feature allows the FIT to be used not only for face screwing but also on the side of regular 3/4 in wood boards.

The biggest asset of the FIT is without a doubt its second thread: this thread is slower than the first one, producing a clamping effect that gives the FIT an assembly strength that no other trim head screw has. In essence, since all trim head screws have by nature small heads that cannot push, the second thread replaces the strength that the head of a regular flat head wood screw would produce. The FIT is the best of both worlds: assembly strength with a small head that almost disappears.

The FIT #9 x 6 with its very special thread design is particularly useful for assembling ultra strong miters and has to be one of the most innovative screws to hit the fastener market in the past 15 years. Watch the video and see the benefit it brings to deck staircase assemblies.

All PWR FIT screws come with the same corrosion-resistant coating that is used on our structural screws, certified compliant with the IBC and IRC building codes.
