These are Type 17 self-drilling screws—also commonly referred to as Tek screws—designed for fastening metal (such as roofing or cladding) directly into timber battens without requiring pre-drilling.


Key Features & Benefits

Point & Thread Design

  • The Type 17 fluted, sharp gimlet-style point cuts into wood and clears sawdust as it advances, speeding up installation and reducing splitting or surface damage.

  • The screw’s threads extend all the way to the point, helping to pull the screw in smoothly, reducing required pressure and risk of stripping.

Head & Drive

  • Features a hex flange head that offers better torque transfer and stability.

  • Typically driven using a magnetic hex socket (5/16″) or compatible power tool bit.

Corrosion Resistance

  • Available with zinc yellow plating, often in Ruspert or Class 3/4 finishes, offering strong protection for outdoor and construction environments.

Sizes & Packaging

  • Common sizes include 12‑11 × 50 mm, 65 mm, 75 mm, and longer lengths—suitable up to 12‑11 × 115 mm based on your need.

  • Typically available in packs of 100, ideal for both small-scale and larger projects.
