Concrete Screw
Concrete Screw taps its own thread directly into a drilled hole in concrete, so no expansion sleeve or plug is needed. It removes a component from the fixing kit and speeds up repetitive fixing work. It is one of the screws and nails lines Winton exports from Guangdong, China.
Key Benefits
- Taps its own thread into a drilled hole in concrete
- No expansion sleeve or plug to fit
- Removes a component from the fixing kit
- Speeds up repetitive fixing work
Where It Is Used
- Temporary and permanent fixings into concrete
- Fixing battens, tracks and rails to slabs
- Work where an expansion anchor would be too intrusive
- Repetitive fixing runs on site
Who It Is For
- Drywall and ceiling system distributors
- Building material wholesalers stocking fixings by the ton
- Interior fit-out contractors buying by the pallet
- Retail hardware buyers building a screw programme
What It Fixes
- Coarse thread and fine thread screws arrive mixed in the same carton and the installer strips the board
- Drill points go blunt on light gauge steel studs, so fixers throw away a share of every box
- Yellow zinc and white zinc arrive in different shades from order to order and retail customers reject them
- Fast-moving screw lines run out between containers because the supplier cannot hold the schedule

- Zinc plating in the specified colour
- Counting by weight, boxing and carton marking

Against The Alternatives
| Nails for board fixing | A screw can be withdrawn and reset without damaging the board, and it does not pop back out of the face as the timber dries. |
|---|---|
| A general purpose wood screw | Drywall screws have a bugle head that seats into the paper without tearing it, which a countersunk wood screw does not. |
| Pre-drilling then fixing | A drill point screw removes the pre-drill step entirely on light gauge steel, which is most of the labour on repetitive fixing. |
Getting It Right On Site
- Match the thread pitch to the framing material before anything else
- Set the driver clutch so the head seats without breaking the paper face
- Keep the driver square to the board to avoid cam-out
- Space fixings to the board manufacturer's pattern
- Store the boxes dry so the plating does not bloom
Customisation Options
- Packaging, carton marking and labelling to your requirement
- Private label and colour box packing on agreed quantities
- Quantity per carton adjusted to suit your handling and shelf layout
- Mixed item loading so several product lines share one container

Concrete Screw FAQ
Can I order Concrete Screw together with other items in the Screws and Nails range
Yes. Concrete Screw is a catalogue stock line, and consolidating it with the rest of your order into one container is the normal way our customers buy it.
Which technical details can you confirm for Concrete Screw
The source catalogue does not publish dimensions for this item. Send us the size, finish and quantity you need and we will confirm what the factory can supply before you place the order.
What is the difference between your coarse thread and fine thread drywall screws
Coarse thread is for fixing board into timber framing. Fine thread is for light gauge steel studs. We list them as separate products so the two never end up in the same carton.
Which zinc finishes do you run on drywall screws
Coarse thread drywall screw is listed in a plain finish and in a yellow zinc plated version, and fine thread drywall screw is listed in white zinc. Confirm the finish on your order so repeat shipments match.
How is delivery time confirmed
Order volume changes the schedule, so we ask every buyer to confirm price and delivery time with us before the order is placed.
