Richelieu FTC17GO5165L PWR DRIVE CST - Structural Screw for General Construction

Richelieu FTC17GO5165L PWR DRIVE CST - General Construction Structural Screw offers a robust solution for structural and construction needs. Crafted from hardened steel, this screw delivers exceptional tensile strength, torque, and shear strength that far surpasses standard lag screws. One of its standout features is the ability to eliminate the need for pre-drilling, enabling faster project completion on job sites. The screw features sharp threads and a Type 17 tip that minimizes wood splitting, while the innovative "U" thread design reduces friction on the shank, leading to lower driving torque and enhanced battery life for your tools. Its oversized flat head, equipped with nibs and under-head cutting serrations, allows for easy countersinking and produces a clean finish in wood. The T-40 firm-grip drive ensures superior torque strength and prevents slippage, making it ideal for tight working conditions. Certified under the ICC/ESR-4558 evaluation, the CST screw complies with the International Building Code (IBC) and the International Residential Code (IRC), confirming its structural integrity and corrosion resistance. Packaged in boxes of 50, these screws are perfect for structure assembly in lumber and treated wood applications, making them the preferred choice for professionals.

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.
