Specifications

Which one do I need?

How to use

1. Hold the pieces together and mark each fixing point, keeping in mind that the screws are 65mm long.
2. Pre-drill near edges and board ends, as a 65mm screw can split thin material.
3. Choose a cross/pozi bit that suits the 65mm screw, and keep the driver in line.
4. Sink each head level, then check the joint before moving on to the next 65mm fixing.
