Distance Screws Galvanised 6 x 60 mm - Box 50 pieces

Are you looking for a 60 mm distance screw? The screws have a torx drive, so you will need a TX 25 bit. Using the right bit will ensure you do not damage the screw. The shank of the distance screws consist of two threaded parts with an unthreaded part in between. The screws are suitable for wood, concrete, and masonry. For concrete and masonry, you will first have to drill a hole with a masonry drill bit and insert a wall plug.

Application distance screws 6 x 60 mm

With distance screws, you can attach two materials with a gap in between. For example, you want to add insulation to your concrete wall, but the wall is not completely straight. Create a wooden structure for insulation with distance screws, so your new wall will be completely level. You can also do this for door and window frames, doors, and more.

The size of the distance screw depends on the gap it will have to bridge. Is it hard to find the exact length you need? In that case, opt for the longer distance screw.

How do distance screws work?

If we take the example with the insulation again, the bottom part of the screw would be embedded in the wall. The top part of the screw would be in the wooden slats. This way, both sides are firmly anchored, without being pulled towards each other. If the slat were made of hardwood, drilling pilot holes with a hardwood drill bit would be recommended.
