These Type 17 screws are incredibly sharp, significantly reducing the need for pre - drilling. The self - countersinking cutting nibs and flat head ensure a neat finish every time. Their deep and sharp threads easily cut through fibrous materials, lowering the torque needed to drive the screw. The next - gen lubrication system means you only need about half the torque compared to conventional screws. The knurled shank ribs further reduce the installation torque. They're great for preventing wood splitting, cleaning the hole, and avoiding jacking when joining two timber pieces. The Star drive recess minimizes cam out and end load, with double the drive torque of Pozi or square drive, preventing spinning and fastener damage. Recess sizes from T10 to T30 match the screw torque requirement. The optimized thread lengths stop cross - threading and jacking, pulling wood together on the first try. Features include an advanced cutting geometry slash point and anti - walk tip that cut down pre - drilling, lubricated serrated threads for easy cutting and less torque, self - countersinking nibs and a flat head for a clean look, and a Trx drive recess to prevent cam out and damage. There's a 1 - year manufacturer warranty, but customers must register the product on the manufacturer's website.
Using these Fixman Goldstar screws is easy. First, you won't need to pre - drill as much because of their super - sharp design. Just position the screw where you want it, and use a driver that matches the Star drive recess (sizes from T10 to T30). The lubrication on the threads will make it go in smoothly with less effort. When joining two pieces of wood, the screws help prevent splitting and jacking. Make sure to keep the screws in a dry place to prevent rusting. For the warranty, don't forget to register the product on the manufacturer's website within a reasonable time. If you notice any issues with the screw's performance, check for proper driver fit and the right recess size. These screws are built to last, but with proper use and storage, they'll serve you well for a long time.
