Why Choose This Product

The Vortex Multi Purpose Wood Screw ZYP 6 x 240MM stands out for its combination of engineered performance features and trade-ready value. The double countersunk head dramatically reduces the risk of head shearing under load, while the ‘Saw Fix’ serrated thread bites fast and holds firm across multiple substrates. The ZYP finish provides reliable corrosion resistance for both interior and exterior use, and the included PZ3 bit means you can get straight to work on site. CE certification to EN14592:2008 + A1:2012 gives specifiers and contractors the compliance assurance they need.
