Description

Effortless Fastening into Reinforced Frames

Modern PVCu window frames rely on internal steel or aluminium reinforcements for structural integrity. However, attaching hardware to these metal cores can be time-consuming if you have to pre-drill every single hole. The TIMCO 121Z fabrication screw solves this bottleneck entirely. Outfitted with a highly effective self-drilling point, this screw acts as its own drill bit. It effortlessly pierces through the PVCu outer layer and drills directly into metal reinforcements up to 2.5mm thick, securing locks, keeps, and hinges in a fraction of the time.

The Advantage of Under-Head Ribs

When installing window hardware, the screw head must sit perfectly flush. If a screw protrudes, it can catch on moving parts or prevent the window from closing correctly. To combat this, TIMCO has integrated specialized milling ribs underneath the countersunk head. As the screw is driven home, these ribs carve out a neat, precise recess in the plastic or metal frame. This guarantees that the screw head pulls down completely flush every single time, without causing the surrounding plastic profile to bulge or crack under the pressure.

Reliable TIMCO Quality

Manufactured from high-strength carbon steel, these self-drilling screws are built to handle the rigorous torque of impact drivers and high-speed fabrication tools. They are finished in a bright zinc coating, giving them a Corrosion Rating of 2. This makes them highly resilient for use in the sheltered, occasionally damp environments typical of window rebates. Packaged in a robust box of 1000 pieces, they provide the consistent quality and volume that professional fabricators demand.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does "MDT 2.5mm" mean?

MDT stands for Maximum Drilling Thickness. It means the self-drilling point on this screw is engineered to easily drill through steel or aluminium internal window reinforcements up to 2.5mm thick without needing a separate pilot hole.

Why does the countersunk head have ribs underneath?

The ribs act like a small cutting or milling tool. As the screw head reaches the surface of the PVCu frame, the ribs carve away the plastic so the head can sink in perfectly flush. This prevents the plastic from expanding and cracking.

Will I need a special drill bit to drive these?

No, these screws use a standard Phillips size 2 (PH2) driver bit, which is universally available and a staple in any fabricator's toolkit.
