SDW

Structural Wood Screw

The Strong-Drive® SDW screw is a 8.0mm diameter, high-strength structural wood screw specifically designed for fastening multi-ply wood members together such as plated trusses, engineered timber products and solid-sawn timber. CE marked to EN14592. Driver bit included in every box.

Heat treated carbon steel - black E-coat™

Features

The SDW installs easily with no pre-drilling and is available in optimized lengths for fastening 2, 3 and 4-ply trusses or 45mm engineered timber such as Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL). The SDW enables single-side fastening, while still allowing concurrent loading on both sides of the assembly to the full allowable head or point-side load of the fastener.

  • CE marked to EN14592
  • Low-profile head for reduced interference during handling or installation of hardware on the assembly
  • High shear values enable wider screw spacing
  • Bold thread design firmly clinches plies together to close gaps in multi-ply assemblies
  • Optimal screw lengths provide maximum point side penetration
  • Driver bit included in each box

Application

Common Applications

  • Fastening of multiple wood elements including uprights and trusses
  • Solid wood
  • Engineered timber

Warning:

Industry studies show that hardened fasteners can experience performance problems in wet or corrosive environments. Accordingly, the SDW timber screws should only be used in dry, interior and non-corrosive environments e.g. Service class 1 & 2.

Installation

Installation

Installation

  • SDW screws install best with a low-speed drill and a T40 6-lobe bit (bit included with every box of screws).
  • Pre-drilling is typically not required. SDW screws may be installed through metal truss plates as approved by the truss designer
  • Drive the fastener so that the top of the head is slightly embedded into the top surface of the timber. To ensure correct performance, do not under or over-drive the fastener.
  • Individual screw locations may be adjusted up to 75mm to avoid conflicts with other hardware or to avoid timber defects.
