Precautions for using drill screws

Drill screws are a new invention in recent years. Screws are a generic term for fasteners, everyday colloquialism.

The tail of the drilling screw is in the shape of a drill tail or a sharp tail, and there is no need for auxiliary processing, and it can be directly drilled, tapped, and locked on the setting material and basic material, which greatly saves the construction time. Compared with ordinary screws, its toughness and maintenance force are high, and it will not loosen for a long time after combination, and it is easy to use safety punching and tapping to complete the operation at one time.

1. Choose the right screws: Before using drill screws, first make sure you choose the right model and size of screws for the required mounting material and application. Different materials and installation conditions may require different types of drill screws.

2. Pre-drilling: Although the drill screws can drill holes by themselves, on some hard materials, pre-drilling can reduce the force on the screws and improve the stability of the installation. Before installation, depending on the size of the screws and the hardness of the material, decide whether pre-drilling is required.

3. Use the right tools: Use a screwdriver or drill that is suitable for drilling the end screws and make sure the tool matches the size and shape of the screws. Improper tooling may result in damaged screws or poor installation.

4. Installation strength: Do not use excessive force when tightening the drill screws. Overtightening may damage the material or cause the screw to break. According to the specifications and requirements of the screws, the installation force is appropriately controlled.

5. Pay attention to the installation depth: know the appropriate installation depth of the drill screws and avoid excessive drilling into the material. Excessive drilling can affect the strength of the material or cause other problems.

6. Avoid reuse: Try to avoid reusing drill screws, because repeated use may cause the thread of the screw to wear or deform the head, affecting the installation effect.

7. Inspection and maintenance: Regularly inspect the installed drill screws to make sure they are not loose or have problems. If necessary, it can be tightened or replaced.
