What Are Tek Screws

Tek screws are specialist metal self drilling screws that are manufactured with a drill point that allows the screw to self drill and tap into it's own hole in metal in one single operation without the need to pre-drill a pilot hole. Working like a drill bit they are a fast, simple and popular fastener solution for general fixing to or joining metal components and structural or sheet metal.

They are also ideal for 'blind fixing' i.e. situations where the back of the fastener cannot be accessed such as box sections, steel beams, structures and components ruling out a nut and bolt option. They are known by several names in construction and engineering apart from teks or tek screws and are commonly called tec or tech screws and/or self drilling screws or just metal screws and metal drillers.

Wing Tip Tek Screws

Wing Tip Tek Screws

Read More

Scrooz Wing Tip screws are professional grade high performance self drilling fasteners for fixing timber to metal in a single operation without the need for pre-drilling. Manufactured with a ribbed countersunk self embedding head giving a flush finish in the timber.

Ideal for fixing timber boards, battens and general timber to steel sections. Due to the different rates of expansions of the timber and steel there is a possibility of screw shearing. This is solely down to timber movement.

Although this is a very rare occurrence (less than 0.5% of cases), due to the volume of wing tip screws we sell for decking boards, all customers must be aware we accept no liability for any screws shearing due to differential timber movement as this is not something under our control.

Methods to reduce timber movement would be sealing, proper ventilation, correct spacing and suitable drainage eliminating standing water. Contact us for more advice regarding your specific application if you are unsure.

For fixing 19mm or 22mm decking boards you'll need a 10g x 45mm length screw.

  • Self drilling hardened points for fast insertion and self centred start.
  • No2 square drive for a positive connection avoiding 'tear out'.
  • Hex 5 drive for 14g wing tip metal self drilling screws.
  • Countersunk head type for a flush finish.
  • Parallel thread providing a constant and even clamping load.
  • Heavy duty high strength shanks designed for use with high torque cordless screw drivers.
  • Thread cutting profile with a coarse tapping thread for rapid installation.
