Product Information

If you are a garden room company, a house builder, renewable energy company, a local joiner, or another type of business that could benefit from collaborating with us, contact us, and lets see how we can help each other. We believe in our products and back the structural integrity of every screw with a 35-year guarantee based on typical soil conditions. Whatever you are building, we will help you choose the best type of screw and attachment that you will need to secure your structure.

If we are limited to 'listed' hardware there should be no need to say Sheet metal screws shall not be used to connect grounding conductors to enclosures. Please remember, the suitability of earth screws versus concrete depends on the specific requirements of your project, including soil type, load requirements, and environmental conditions. Removability and Reusability: Unlike concrete, a ground screw can be easily removed and reused, making them a more flexible option for temporary or relocatable structures. We have hundreds or 1000's of bolts, i can tell when removing one been in service if the installer lubed it, even outdoor for decades,,,, sprayed comes apart. Even though I do use TEK screws, depending on the application, I do not use TEK screws for electrical connections.Via the screws" is only a valid grounding path if (by cause of tightening the screw) two metal surfaces are clamped together flush, hard and without contamination (rust, paint, those little plastic squares that capture the screws etc.

Last job I was on, I was told that ever box had to be installed pre-grounded, and that the grounds needed to be green. Installation Care: Care must be taken during installation to ensure the ground anchor is properly aligned and inserted at the correct angle and depth.

While our range of screws offer these sustainability benefits, the best choice for your foundations depends on the specific requirements of the project, including load-bearing needs, soil conditions, and long-term objectives. Once the correct screws are installed by our accredited and experienced installation teams, they will provide long-lasting, secure and stable foundations for your project.

I put in a pan head steel screw from a plastic anchor but it is sheetmetal/wood threads not machine threads, it is holding a solid Cu Wire against the box interior just fine, I think better than that 10-32 self tap ever was going to be. So its hard to get started, by hand, in a hole without threads as the tap immediately following the pilot drill. Appropriate Equipment: Using the right drilling equipment is crucial to penetrate the tarmac effectively without causing excessive damage or wear to the drill bit. In practice it will almost always be OK, because the light fixture is connected to the metal box with metal screws. Beam brackets, post brackets, L-supports amongst others, and if you need a bespoke attachment, we can manufacture it for you.If you remove a TEK screw, and then put it back in the same hole, can you get the same torque the second time? While it is unlikely that those things would happen, why take the chance when it is an easy job to rewire? Professional Installation: Due to the complexities involved, professional installation is recommended to ensure the foundations are installed correctly and safely. From the moment we engage with you, right through to handing over to the team who will complete your building project, we will work tirelessly to meet your needs.

As it turns out the little screw that bonded the 2 ground bars together rusted from years of moisture.Summer and Dry Conditions: In contrast, during dry seasons or in arid regions, the ground may be harder, requiring more effort or different equipment to install the screws effectively. When you push everything back into the box with the wall plate, the grounding wire probably does make direct contact with the metal of the box in some area but it is definitely not directly connnected.
