Timco Galvanised Drive Screw - 50 x 5.40

Timco Galvanised Drive Screws are engineered for the robust and durable fastening of metal roofing and cladding sheets directly onto timber purlins. These heavy-duty fasteners are a cornerstone of reliable construction, ensuring structural integrity and weatherproofing for agricultural buildings, industrial warehouses, and commercial sheds. Their design provides a secure, long-lasting connection that resists the stresses of wind uplift and thermal movement common in large-span structures.

Manufactured from high-quality carbon steel, each screw is hot-dip galvanised to offer medium-duty rust protection. This critical finish significantly extends the service life of the fastener in exposed environments, preventing premature corrosion and maintaining holding power. The screw's construction conforms to Eurocode 5 and is suitable for Service Class 2 conditions, meeting recognised standards for timber-to-sheet metal connections in non-permanently humid climates.

The drive screw design features a sharp point and deep, aggressive thread that bites securely into the timber purlin, pulling the metal sheet down tightly against the timber to create a weatherproof seal. This eliminates the need for pre-drilling in most applications, speeding up installation and reducing labour costs on large roofing projects. The galvanised finish is not only protective but also provides a neat, professional appearance.

Supplied in a convenient and substantial pack size, these screws are ideal for contractors and builders requiring bulk quantities for major roofing installations. The combination of strength, corrosion resistance, and compliance with building standards makes Timco Galvanised Drive Screws a trusted, go-to solution for secure sheet fixing across the construction industry.
