Product Summary
Hex Flange Type 17 Pit Screws are commonly used within the telecommunications industry, particularly in Telstra cable pit installations. They are a common choice for facilitating the deployment of the NBN network. These screws feature a Type 17 Self-Drilling point, engineered to effectively penetrate timber and most types of plastics. Their 5/16" sized Hex flanged head enhances their ability to withstand significant pull-out forces. 304 Stainless Steel (A2) for high corrosion resistance.
The Type 17 Self-Drilling point possesses a distinctive, elongated, and sharp design, accompanied by a flute. This unique construction enables it to effortlessly cut through timber and plastic fibers during the screwing process. The flute also serves to gather and contain the displaced fibers, significantly reducing the risk of material splitting.
Furthermore, the self-drilling Type 17 point exhibits remarkable versatility by being capable of piercing light gauge steel up to 0.6mm in thickness without the need for predrilling. This feature makes Hex Flange Type 17 Pit Screws an invaluable resource for a wide range of applications in the telecommunications and construction sectors.
Features
- 5/16" Hex head increases effective clamping area and pull-out resistance
- The Type 17 point is a sharp, fluted point offering great timber penetration and drive when accompanied by a coarse biting thread, ultimately allowing for a quicker and cleaner install
- 304 Stainless Steel for high corrosion resistance
Applications
- Industry standard for Telstra Pits for the NBN network
