About Twin-Thread Zinc Countersunk Woodscrews
Twin-Thread Zinc Countersunk Woodscrews are a traditional twin-thread fixing designed to deliver fast installation and reliable holding strength in common timber applications. They are mainly used in softwood and 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 speed, consistency and dependable performance are required.

The twin-thread design allows these woodscrews to drive quickly while maintaining strong pull-out resistance, making them suitable for:
- Softwood timber fixing
- Chipboard, MDF and man-made boards
- General joinery and second-fix work
- Masonry fixing when used with a plastic wall plug
- Maintenance and general construction applications
Their traditional design makes them a familiar and practical choice for everyday trade use.
Key Design Features
Twin-thread zinc countersunk woodscrews incorporate features that improve speed, strength and durability:
- Double countersunk head to reduce the likelihood of head shear and assist smooth, flush countersinking
- 60° twin-thread design with parallel shank for faster insertion and increased pull-out resistance
Single lead start for quicker engagement and easier driving - 25° sharp point for fast starts and improved thread acceptance
- Manufactured from C10–18 steel to ensure consistent quality
Surface hardened to help prevent torque shearing under load, with a core-hardened structure for improved ductility
All sizes up to and including 30 mm are fully threaded, while 32 mm and above are partially threaded, making longer screws suitable where draw-up is required.
