Specifications

Which one do I need?

5.0 x 100mm (10 x 4 inch) reads as diameter then length. Add the thickness of the piece you are fixing to the depth you want in the base, and see whether the total comes to about 100mm.

How to use

1. Hold the work in position and mark each screw, checking for hidden cables behind.
2. Drill a pilot hole in hardwood or close to a board end, because the 100mm length can split timber.
3. Use a driver bit that matches the head and keep it in line with the screw.
4. Stop when the head is flush or just below the surface, and do not over-drive.
