The values listed are ultimate averages achieved under laboratory conditions and apply to Buildex manufactured fasteners only. Appropriate safety factors should be applied to these values for design purposes.
A standard screwgun with a depth sensitive nosepiece should be used in install Teks. For optimal fastener performance, the screwgun should be a minimum of 6 amps and have a RPM range of 0-2500. | |
Adjust the screwgun nosepiece to properly seat the fastener. | |
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 a minimum of 3 pitches of thread beyond the metal structure. | |
New magnetic sockets must be correctly set before use. Remove chip build-up as needed |
