Richelieu FTC17GO142 PWR DRIVE CST - Structural Screw for General ConstructionRichelieu FTC17GO142 PWR DRIVE CST - General Construction Structural screw is engineered for superior performance in structural applications. Crafted from hardened steel, this screw boasts high tensile strength, high torque, and exceptional shear strength that standard lag screws simply can't match. The design eliminates the need for pre-drilling, saving valuable time on the job site. Its sharp threads and type 17 tip minimize wood splitting, while the unique "U" thread reduces friction on the screw shank, resulting in lower driving torque and enhanced battery life for your tools. The oversized flat head features nibs and under-head cutting serrations, ensuring effortless countersinks and a clean finish in wood. With a T-40 firm-grip drive, the PWR DRIVE CST not only delivers impressive torque strength but also remains securely attached to your bit, making it ideal for challenging work environments. Certified under ICC/ESR-4558, the PWR DRIVE CST meets both the International Building Code (IBC) and the International Residential Code (IRC) standards for structural integrity and corrosion resistance, with clear head markings for easy job site inspections. Packaged in a box of 600, this 2-inch, 1/4-inch screw is the preferred choice for structural assembly and construction needs.
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.
