Richelieu FTC17GO387 PWR DRIVE CST - Structural Screw for General Construction

Richelieu FTC17GO387 PWR DRIVE CST - General Construction Structural screw delivers unprecedented performance in structural applications. Crafted from hardened steel, this screw offers exceptional tensile strength, high torque, and superior shear strength, far surpassing conventional lag screws. Its innovative design eliminates the need for pre-drilling, allowing for significant time savings on the job site. The sharp threads and Type 17 tip provide quick penetration and minimize wood splitting, while the unique "U" thread reduces friction along the screw shank. This design not only enhances driving efficiency but also extends the battery life of your tools, making it an ideal choice for demanding tasks. Featuring an oversized flat head with under-head cutting serrations, the PWR DRIVE CST ensures a clean and seamless finish. Equipped with a T-40 firm-grip drive, this screw offers exceptional torque strength and stability, even in challenging positions. The PWR DRIVE CST is ICC/ESR-4558 certified, meeting the International Building Code (IBC) and International Residential Code (IRC) standards for structural integrity and corrosion resistance. Supplied in a box of 200, this 7-inch screw is suitable for lumber and treated wood, making it a reliable solution for structural assembly and construction 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.
