heavy duty steel tek screws

The head of a self-drilling screw is typically made from nylon, a synthetic polymer known for its durability, resilience, and resistance to chemicals. This material choice serves several purposes. Firstly, the nylon head provides an excellent grip, reducing the chances of slippage during tightening, making it ideal for applications where a secure hold is essential. Secondly, nylon is non-conductive, making these screws safe to use in electrical installations. Lastly, the low friction coefficient of nylon allows the screw to glide smoothly into the material, minimizing the risk of damage.

In addition to diameter and length, other factors such as the spacing and arrangement of shear studs also contribute to their effectiveness. The distance between each stud should not exceed certain limits to ensure uniform distribution of stress The distance between each stud should not exceed certain limits to ensure uniform distribution of stress The distance between each stud should not exceed certain limits to ensure uniform distribution of stress The distance between each stud should not exceed certain limits to ensure uniform distribution of stressshear stud sizes. This spacing is typically calculated based on the Eurocode or local building codes.
