Q: When do I use Twinstart screws?
A: We recommend these when using Plastic Expansion Plugs, Nylon Plugs & the Unifix Boardmaster as they expand the plug rather than cut into them. Its design is close to the original Twinstart woodscrew manufactured to BS1210:1963 & was until the mid 1990’s universally used in the Construction Industry & this is why they are imperially sized. It does of course also work well in wood.
Q: When do I use Chipboard Screws?
A: When fixing into wood, plastic or sheet materials. Their sharp point & deep single thread make them easy to drive in without pre-drilling. The Yellow Passivated finish also blends in more naturally with wood & offers a good level of corrosion resistance. Developed in Europe in the 1990’s they are metrically sized. The Unifix Hyper Plus is the most technically advanced screw we sell.
