We see these galvanised frame screws more and more. Once tested you will discover how firmly this screw fixes your beam to walls. Wovar supplies frame screws in 3 different types. Namely the flat head version, the cylinder head version and the spherical head version. The frame screws with a flat head and round head design are suitable for aluminum and plastic frames. Frame screws with a cylinder head are especially for wooden frames. The cylinder head sinks nicely into the wood and that leads to a beautiful end result.

When you work with frame screws, it is always necessary to pre-drill. The thickness of your drill depends on the substrate. A 6mm drill bit is sufficient for a stone surface and a 6.5mm drill bit for a concrete surface. The correct screw-in depth is indicated below. For the correct drilling depth, add 10mm to the screw-in depth.
