COACH SCREW GALVANISED

Galvanised coach screws are heavy-duty, corrosion-resistant fasteners used to securely join heavy timber-to-timber or timber-to-metal, particularly in outdoor environments. Their thick zinc coating prevents rust, making them ideal for landscaping, fencing, pergolas, and retaining walls. They feature a hexagonal head for high torque and a self-tapping point.

Key Functions and Uses
Heavy Duty Fastening: Ideal for structural timber projects such as landscaping, retaining walls, pergolas, and timber beam construction.
Corrosion Protection: The hot-dipped galvanised finish offers high resistance to rust, suitable for outdoor, damp, and harsh weather conditions.
High Torque/Strength: The hexagonal head allows for strong clamping forces using spanners or socket wrenches.
Versatile Applications: Used for fixing timber-to-timber, attaching timber to metal, or fastening into masonry/concrete with nylon plugs.

Characteristics
Material & Finish: Thick, dull grey, hot-dipped galvanised coating for maximum corrosion resistance.
Installation: Usually requires a pre-drilled pilot hole to prevent splitting, particularly in hardwood.
Design: Partially threaded shank with a tapered gimlet point for quick, secure starting.
