Klimas Wkret-Met KMWHT Wood Screw 6 x 160 mm, 100 pcs

The Klimas Wkret-Met KMWHT wood screw, measuring 6 x 160 mm, is a professional-grade fastener engineered for robust and secure wood-to-wood connections. These screws are designed to provide high pull-out resistance and reliable structural integrity in various timber construction projects. With a galvanized finish, they offer enhanced protection against corrosion, making them suitable for long-term use in diverse environments.

Advantages

The primary advantage of these screws lies in their specialized Torx head design, which ensures optimal torque transmission and prevents cam-out during installation. The galvanized coating provides a durable barrier against environmental factors, extending the lifespan of the connection. Their precise dimensions and high-quality steel construction allow for efficient driving into wood without the need for extensive pre-drilling in many applications, saving time and effort on the job site.

Suitable for

• Timber frame construction
• Carpentry and joinery projects
• Furniture assembly
• General wood-to-wood fastening

These screws may not be suitable for use in highly acidic environments or in contact with chemically treated wood that promotes rapid corrosion of galvanized steel. They are also not intended for use in masonry, concrete, or metal substrates without appropriate anchors.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 6 mm
• Length: 160 mm
• Head type: Recessed
• Drive type: Torx
• Finish: Galvanized
• Quantity: 100 pieces

To use these screws effectively, ensure that the wood surfaces are properly aligned before driving. Use a compatible Torx bit that fits snugly into the recess to prevent damage to the screw head. Apply steady pressure and maintain a perpendicular angle to the surface to ensure the screw seats correctly. For dense hardwoods, it is recommended to drill a pilot hole to prevent the wood from splitting.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required length and diameter for your specific project thickness
• Ensure your power tool is compatible with the Torx drive system
• Check if the galvanized coating meets the environmental requirements of your application

For optimal results, always use the correct size Torx bit and ensure the screw is driven until the head is flush with the wood surface. Avoid over-tightening to maintain the integrity of the wood fibers.
