Fischer 568169 screw/bolt 50 pieces

The Fischer PowerFast FPF II-WTP BC is a flange-head wood construction screw with a TX (star) recess and partial thread, supplied in a pack of 50 (MPN 568169, EAN 4048962484816). It is designed for timber constructions and connections where secure clamping and reduced head pull-through are required. The screw features a European Technical Assessment for verified performance and is manufactured by FISCHER for professional and DIY use.

Advantages

The flange head with TX star recess provides increased clamping force and better resistance against the head pulling through the material. The partial thread permits firm attachment of wooden elements, while the thread geometry and thread running into the screw tip enable fast bite and easy driving, often without pre-drilling. Shank ribs reduce screwing resistance, lowering the required insertion force and battery consumption for cordless drivers.

Suitable for

• Timber framing and structural wood-to-wood connections
• Fixing wooden components in furniture and carpentry
• Domestic and light-professional wood construction tasks

How to use

Select a suitable screw length for the timber elements to be joined. Position the screw on the marked point, use a TX bit that matches the recess, and drive the screw with a hand or cordless driver. For many timber densities the PowerFast thread allows screwing without pre-drilling; however, if the wood is very hard or close to edges, pre-drilling a pilot hole is recommended to avoid splitting. Tighten until the flange head sits flush without over-torquing.

Recommendations

Store screws dry and protected from corrosion. For structural or load-bearing applications follow applicable building codes and use the European Technical Assessment data to determine permissible loads and required spacing.
