GRK R4 Multi-Purpose Framing Screws #10 x 3-1/2″

Description

• Recessed Star Drive: Zero Stripping, with 6 points of contact
• CEE Thread: Enlarges hole to reduce splitting
• W-Cut™: Low torque, smoother drive
• Zip-Tip™: no pre-drilling, faster penetration
• Cutting Pockets: provide a clean hole, reduces splitting, and bore with precision
• ESR-3201 Approved for structural applications
• Case Hardened Steel: for high tensile, torque and shear strength
• For interior/exterior use: in wood, plastic, cement fiber board, sheet metal, wood decking and melamine

GRK’s R4 self-countersinking screw has a new under head with saw-blade like cutting teeth and six self-contained cutting pockets. Together these features act like a circular saw blade, transporting the “drill dust” away from the edge of the screw hole while cutting a perfectly clean hole into even the most brittle materials without cracking any surface treatment.

This design further enhances the R4’s versatility by allowing the fastener to be installed without countersinking into even the hardest woods. The screw head closes the hole off with precision, leaving no damaged fibers around the head.

R4 screws which are 2″ and longer have a four threaded CEE thread that enlarges the screw hole for the non-threaded portion of the fastener. This technological advancement allows the wood to settle easily and increases the screw’s drawing strength, reducing the friction on the screw shank and lowering the driving torque.

The R4 is a multi-purpose screw that can be used in all woodworking and plastic applications. Because the head has a 90 degree angle at the underside, the screw fits perfectly into the pre-countersunk holes of hardware fittings such as hinges or locks. Stocking of different screws is no longer necessary because the R4 is a very versatile screw.

R4™ Multi-Purpose Framing and Decking Screws: Frame with ease and confidence. Multi-use screw for wood, particle board, sheet metal, cement fiber board, laminate and wood decking and melamine. They are self tapping eliminating pre-drilling featuring a countersinking head with cutting teeth, W-Cut™ for reducing torque, CEE Thread™ for no splitting and our Climatek™ AC257 code approved coating.

For deck boards consisting of pressure treated lumber, cedar & redwood use #9 or #10 gauge screws. For Southern Yellow Pine use #10. For use in all applications including pressure treated lumber.

Some sizes come in PHEINOX™ strainless steel.

They are ESR code approved under ICC Report ESR-3201.
