TEX wood screws
High-performance screws for joinery and timber structures
TEX wood screw range
Why choose TEX wood screws?
Safe, fast and precise installation
The tip and thread make it easier for the screw to penetrate and advance through the wood, reducing installation effort and allowing installation without pre-drilling.
Reduced risk of splitting
The tip geometry reduces stress during installation, even for fixing close to the edge and in timber elements with a limited cross-section.
Flush-fitting head with the wood
The countersinking features beneath the head remove material from the wood during installation, allowing the head to sit flush without prior preparation.
Wide range of sizes
Wood screws from Ø 2.5 to Ø 10 mm and up to 450 mm long, suitable for fixing everything from small hardware to large-section timber elements.
Different drive types and finishes
Available with TX or PZ drives and in yellow zinc-plated, zinc-plated or A2 stainless steel finishes.
CE marking EN 14592
CE marked in accordance with EN 14592 for structural timber applications.
Chromium VI-free coating
Provides effective surface protection with a lower impact on health and the environment.
TEX wood screw design and geometry
TX and PZ drives
Wood screws available with a hexalobular TX or Pozidriv PZ drive. The deep recess improves bit engagement and helps prevent cam-out during installation.
Self-countersinking features
They remove material from the wood during installation to ensure the head seats firmly and flush. Depending on the screw size, the screw features internal countersinking ribs for hardware or external ribs for joints between timber elements.
TEC-BT wide head
This version increases the bearing surface and improves load distribution in structural joints and large-section timber elements.
Express thread
Thread pitch optimised according to screw diameter and length for maximum installation speed and precision.
Self-cleaning zone
The helical geometries above the thread help remove wood chips and facilitate screw insertion.
Serrations
Facilitates installation in hardwood, solid wood and particleboard while reducing installation torque.
Ultra-sharp tip
Makes it easier to start the screw and penetrate the wood, allowing installation without pre-drilling.
Where can TEX wood screws be used?
Thin wood
Hardwood
Wood-based panel
Pine
Fixing hardware to wood
For installing hinges, brackets, supports and other hardware on timber elements ensuring precise positioning during installation.
Joining timber elements
For joining studs, battens, boards and other timber elements in both carpentry and construction work.
Fixing metal reinforcements to wood
For fixing plates, connectors and other metal components used to join or reinforce timber elements.
Load-bearing timber structures
For making joints in load-bearing timber structures. The screw size, arrangement and quantity must be determined according to the project requirements and technical documentation.
FAQS
What is a wood screw?
A wood screw is a self-tapping screw designed primarily for making joints in wood. Its thread penetrates directly into the material and providing the grip required to join timber elements or fix hardware and metal reinforcements.
Unlike a metric screw, it does not require a nut to form the joint.
INDEX TEX wood screws are designed for fast and easy insertion into wood. The range includes different geometries, heads, drive types, sizes and finishes for fixing hardware, joining studs and metal reinforcements, and assembling load-bearing timber structures.
Do TEX wood screws require pre-drilling?
What is the difference between TX and PZ drives?
The TEX range is available with hexalobular TX and Pozidriv PZ drives. The TX drive provides efficient torque transmission and stable guidance, while the PZ drive can be used with bits commonly used in carpentry.
In both cases, the correct bit type and size for each product reference must be used to ensure proper engagement.
What is the difference between TEX-BT, TEX-BP, TEX-ZT and TEX-ZP?
The first part of the product code identifies the finish:
- B: yellow zinc-plated.
- Z: zinc-plated.
The final letter identifies the drive type:
- T: TX drive.
- P: PZ drive.
All four models have a countersunk head, although their available diameter and length ranges differ.
When should TEC-BT be used?
When should TEX-A2 be used?
