Klimas WKCS Wood Screw 8x180 mm

The Klimas WKCS wood screw, measuring 8x180 mm, is a professional-grade fastener engineered for robust structural timber connections. Designed for durability and precision, this screw ensures reliable holding power in demanding wood construction projects. Its specialized thread geometry facilitates efficient penetration into various wood types, minimizing the risk of splitting while providing a secure and long-lasting connection for carpentry and framing tasks.

Advantages

This wood screw features a high-quality galvanized coating that provides essential protection against corrosion, making it suitable for indoor and sheltered outdoor applications. The recessed head design allows for a clean, flush finish, ensuring that the screw sits perfectly within the material surface. Its optimized thread design significantly reduces installation time by allowing for rapid driving without the need for extensive pre-drilling in many common timber types.

Suitable for

• Structural timber framing
• Construction of wooden roof trusses
• Assembly of heavy-duty wooden structures
• General carpentry and joinery projects

This screw may not be suitable for use in highly corrosive environments, such as coastal areas or direct contact with treated timber containing aggressive chemicals, where stainless steel fasteners would be required. It is also not intended for use in masonry or metal substrates without appropriate anchors.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 8 mm
• Length: 180 mm
• Head type: Recessed
• Finish: Galvanized
• Quantity: 50 pieces

How to use

To achieve the best results, ensure that the wood surfaces are properly aligned before driving the screw. While the specialized thread design assists in penetration, it is recommended to drill a pilot hole if working near the edge of the timber or with particularly dense hardwoods to prevent splitting. Use a compatible screwdriver bit that fits the recessed head securely to prevent cam-out and ensure optimal torque transfer during installation.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required length and diameter for your specific structural load requirements.
• Ensure the galvanized finish is appropriate for your intended environmental conditions.
• Check that your power tool is compatible with the recessed head type.

Usage recommendations

For optimal structural integrity, always follow local building codes and engineering specifications regarding screw spacing and edge distances when installing timber fasteners.
