New Toolstation catalogue adds 1000 products
Toolstation launches its September catalogue packed with over 1,000 new products, many new brands and special offers for DeWalt fans.
One of its main features is the Tri-Lock shank which forms as well as cuts a thread, which means 25% less insertion torque than a standard woodscrew, but more importantly the screw will not work loose over time as the wood flexes under use.
As a result of its core to size ratio, Screw-Tite also performs with the versatility of a screw a gauge smaller but with greater strength, enabling jointing securely with a lighter gauge screw but with less splitting and damage to the material.
Other features include a part-thread shank which reduces 'jacking' (the parting of jointed material); under-head ribs which self-countersink the screw; and a permeated case with through hardening which gives it the strength of a high tensile bolt and eliminates the need for pilot holes even in hard wood.
Stocked by Toolstation in 19 sizes from 12mm to 100mm, the Screw-Tite range answers the needs of all normal applications.
Copies of the new Toolstation brochure which includes over 8,500 product lines spanning tools and accessories, fixings, hardware, adhesives and sealants, plumbing and electrical fittings, are available from Toolstation.
