Richelieu FTC17GO14312L PWR DRIVE CST - Structural Screw for General Construction

Richelieu FTC17GO14312L PWR DRIVE CST is a high-performance structural screw crafted from hardened steel, delivering exceptional tensile strength, torque, and shear resistance that surpasses standard lag screws. This innovative design eliminates the need for pre-drilling, significantly reducing installation time on the job site. The sharp type 17 tip minimizes wood splitting, while the unique "U" thread decreases friction on the screw shank, enhancing battery life for your tools and simplifying the driving process. Featuring a wide, oversized flat head with under-head cutting serrations, the PWR DRIVE CST ensures easy countersinking and a clean finish upon embedding in wood. The T-40 firm-grip drive provides superior torque strength and allows the screw to remain securely attached to the bit, making it ideal for challenging positions. Certified under ICC/ESR-4558, this screw meets the International Building Code (IBC) and International Residential Code (IRC), ensuring compliance with structural properties and corrosion resistance. Each screw is marked for easy job site inspections, reinforcing its reliability for structural applications. Packaged in boxes of 50, the FTC17GO14312L offers a robust solution for structure assembly and construction needs, making it the preferred choice for demanding projects.

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.
