Richelieu FTC17GO10318MR PWR DRIVE CST Structural Screw for General ConstructionRichelieu FTC17GO10318MR PWR DRIVE CST is a high-performance structural screw engineered for demanding construction applications. Crafted from hardened steel, this screw delivers superior tensile strength, high torque, and exceptional shear strength, outpacing traditional lag screws. One of its standout features is the ability to drive without pre-drilling, saving valuable time on the job site. The screw's sharp threads and Type 17 tip minimize wood splitting, while the innovative "U" thread design reduces friction, enhancing driving torque and prolonging battery life for your tools. With its oversized flat head equipped with nibs and under-head cutting serrations, the PWR DRIVE CST ensures a clean and seamless finish during countersinking. Designed with a T-40 firm-grip drive, this screw excels in providing excellent torque strength and stability, even in tight or awkward spaces. Furthermore, the PWR DRIVE CST is ICC/ESR-4558 certified, meeting the stringent requirements of the International Building Code (IBC) and International Residential Code (IRC), making it suitable for structural applications. Each blister pack contains 15 units, with a screw length of 3 1/8 inches and a size of 10, making the PWR DRIVE CST an ideal choice for structural assembly and construction projects. Trust in its reliability for your next build.
PWR DRIVE CST - General Construction Structural screw
The PWR DRIVE CST screw is made of hardened steel to provide a degree of high tensile strength, high torque, and super shear strength that a regular lag screw just cannot offer. This results in the instant advantage of not having to pre-drill, which is quite a time saver on the job site. The sharp threads and points bite quickly, a type 17 tip reduces wood splitting and a clearing thread, called the "U" thread, reduces the friction on the screw shank, for reduced driving torque and more importantly increased battery life for your tools. The PWR DRIVE CST has a wide flat head with nibs and under-head cutting serrations for easy countersinks and will embed in wood with an incomparable clean finish. This screw also has a T-40 firm-grip drive, that not only provides exceptional torque strength but allows the CST to stick to the bit, which is paramount when you work in less than ideal positions.
It is also worth mentioning that the PWR DRIVE CST is part of the ICC/ESR-4558 evaluation, which certifies CST as fully compliant with the International Building Code (IBC) and the International Residential Code (IRC), for both its structural properties and corrosion resistance. This is why all CST screws have head markings for easy job site inspections
For all these reasons, PWR DRIVE CST screws are a great replacement for lag screws and are the screws of choice for structural 'spec' applications.
