About Solo Zinc Countersunk Woodscrews
Solo Zinc Countersunk Woodscrews are an economic, single thread woodscrew range designed to deliver consistent, dependable performance across common trade fixing tasks. They’re suitable for use in softwood, hardwood, chipboard, MDF and other man-made boards, and can also be used for masonry fixing when installed with a suitable plastic wall plug.
Finished with a bright zinc plating, this range is intended for internal and dry environment applications where cost efficiency and reliable fixing are the priority. Solo zinc woodscrews are particularly effective in low-density substrates, where controlled thread engagement and pull-out resistance are essential.
Designed for Everyday Internal Fixing
Solo Zinc Countersunk Woodscrews are designed for general fixing rather than specialist structural work. Typical applications include:
- General timber-to-timber fixing
- Softwood and hardwood installations
- Chipboard, MDF and man-made boards
- Masonry fixing when used with a plastic wall plug
- Second-fix, maintenance and general construction work
Their straightforward design makes them easy to use across a wide range of materials without unnecessary complexity.
Key Design Features
Solo zinc woodscrews incorporate practical features to improve installation speed, consistency and reliability on site:
- Single thread design for secure fixing and good pull-out resistance in low-density materials
- Double countersunk head to reduce the likelihood of head shear and assist smooth, flush countersinking
- Wax lubrication to reduce driving torque and improve insertion time
- 40° deep single thread for reliable holding strength
- 25° sharp point with single lead for fast starts and improved thread acceptance
All sizes up to and including 75mm are fully threaded, while 80mm and above are partially threaded with a 70mm thread length, making longer screws suitable where draw-up is required.
