Steel Screws

Dowel-type fasteners with thread, e.g. screws made of steel, are fasteners that can predominantly be used for fastening two or more components. The materials to be fastened or screw-in surfaces can be made of wood, wood materials, plastic, aluminium, steel, stainless steel or other metals.

Pin-shaped connectors, such as screws, are generally manufactured from a wire (steel) and provided with a head on one component side to be tightened. Depending on the application, it can have different shapes, e.g. countersunk head, round head, hexagon head or washer head. For anchoring the pin-shaped connectors, a thread is formed on the opposite side. The thread shape (e.g. wood thread or metric thread) is matched to the screw-in surface and can be designed differently in terms of thread height, thread angle or thread pitch. The point design of the dowel-type fasteners with thread is matched to the application, e.g. wooden tip, drill tip or blunt shape. For protection against corrosion or e.g. for setting a sliding friction, the pin-shaped connectors can be provided with different coatings, for example, zinc or anti-skid coating.
