SDWS & SDWH Framing Screws
Description

The SDWS Framing screw is suitable for replacing nails in many framing applications where a more secure and precise connection is wanted, especially where greater holding power and pullout resistance is needed, it can also be easily removed if required.

The screw has a SawTooth™ point that makes for fast installations without predrilling, and its specially designed head countersinks easily to provide a clean, flush finish. The T25 bit holds the 6-lobe recess tightly, reducing cam-out and head stripping.
