Chipboard, while inherently strong, can be susceptible to damage if not properly secured. Fasteners play a vital role in ensuring that the pieces of chipboard stay together under stress and use. They prevent joints from separating and maintain the overall integrity of the product, whether it’s a piece of furniture or a decorative shelf. Using the incorrect type of fastener can lead to stripped holes, poor support, and even failure of the assembled structure.

3. Corrosion Resistance Many 13mm wafer head Tek screws are coated with materials that provide protection against corrosion, which is essential in outdoor and high-moisture environments. This durability ensures long-lasting performance and reduces maintenance costs over the lifetime of the structure.
