CONTEK SCREW

CONTEK SCREW, home hardware

Description: This is double-pitched (threads go at different diagonal directions) with a recessed Phillips or 5/16 hex head. They are zinc chromate-plated.

Buying information: Contek screws are excellent for securing boards to concrete, and are much safer than masonry nails.

How-to hint: These screws must be installed with a masonry drill bit and cordless drill. They screw into the cement.
