A standard screwgun with a depth sensitive nosepiece should be used to install Teks. For optimal fastener performance, the screwgun should be a minimum of 6 amps and have an RPM range of 0-2500. | |||||||||||||||
Adjust the screwgun nosepiece to properly seat the fastener. | |||||||||||||||
New magnetic sockets must be correctly set before use. Remove chip build-up as needed. | |||||||||||||||
The fastener is fully seated when the head is flush with the work surface. | |||||||||||||||
Overdriving may result in torsional failure of the fastener or stripout of the substrate. | |||||||||||||||
The fastener must penetrate beyond the metal structure a minimum of 3 pitches of thread.
