These screws are typically made from high-carbon steel or stainless steel, ensuring durability and reliability. The design features a drill point that allows the screw to penetrate through various materials—metal, wood, and even some composites—while simultaneously creating a snug fit as they are installed.

Applications in Cladding

1. Superior Grip and Torque One of the main benefits of hex screws is their ability to handle higher torque levels. The recessed hex head allows the use of a hex key or an impact driver, providing a more secure grip compared to slotted or Phillips-head screws. This is particularly useful when working with dense hardwoods, where maintaining control throughout the fastening process is crucial.

4. Easy Removal If adjustments or replacements are necessary, Tek screws can be easily removed without damaging the surrounding material, unlike other fastening methods.
