Richelieu FTC17GO5164L PWR DRIVE CST - Structural Screw for General Construction

Richelieu FTC17GO5164L PWR DRIVE CST is a high-performance structural screw designed for demanding construction applications. Crafted from hardened steel, this screw delivers superior tensile strength, torque, and shear strength that far surpasses traditional lag screws. One of its standout features is the ability to install without pre-drilling, significantly saving time on the job site. The FTC17GO5164L is equipped with sharp threads and a Type 17 tip that minimizes wood splitting, while its unique "U" thread reduces friction on the screw shank. This design not only lowers driving torque but also enhances the battery life of your tools, making it an efficient choice for professionals. The oversized flat head with nibs and under-head cutting serrations ensures clean countersinking, providing a polished finish in wood. With a T-40 firm-grip drive, this screw offers exceptional torque strength and maintains a secure connection to the bit, ideal for challenging work positions. Additionally, the PWR DRIVE CST is ICC/ESR-4558 certified, ensuring compliance with the International Building Code (IBC) and the International Residential Code (IRC) for both structural integrity and corrosion resistance. Packed in a box of 50, these screws are the ideal replacement for lag screws in 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.
