Description
Lubricated universal screw suitable for screwing without a pilot hole into: chipboard panels, wood, hardware, thin sheet metal, plastic and wall plugs.
TORX RECESS
Deep six lobes TX recess which, due to its vertical walls, transmits all the tightening torque preventing stripping of the bit and wear of the recess.
Three TX recesses available for the entire range:
Diameter: 3 | TX 10 recess |
Diameter: 3,5 – 4 – 4,5 – 5 | TX 20 recess |
Diameter: 6 | TX 30 recess |
HEAD
Reinforced to allow high tightening torques to be transmitted.
THREAD
with a smooth and sharp profile to guarantee rapid screwing with minimum effort, reducing the risk of cracking the wood.
OGIVE-SHAPED TIP
Threaded right to the end, ensure a secure grip without any slipping and a gradual and constant penetration of the screw. Rapid penetration is thus obtained and, as there are no points of discontinuity, here is a lower risk of cracking the materials.

GALVANIC TREATMENT
of an iridescent colour, it ensures much more effective protection against rust than all normal galvanizing treatments. Complies with the EN1670 standard grade 4.
Chromiting® treatment has a much higher corrosion resistance than that of white or yellow galvanizing. It can be used for applications both indoors and outdoors and respects the environment in compliance with the RoHS, Reach and 2000/53/EU standards.

IN PROCESS CONTROLS
The entire manufacturing process is subjected to SPC (Statistical Product Control), which guarantees a constantly high level of quality in time.
The batch number on the labels ensures absolute traceability of all the phases of production and related control/test documents.
CALIBRATED SCREWS
The Mustad Panelvit® screws are manufactured with stricter-than-standard tolerance limits. They can therefore be defined as ‘calibrated’, that is, capable of sliding more easily in the guides and loading tubes of screwing machines.
CE MARKING
