It suits joining heavy framing timbers and joists, fixing wall plates, bearers, and trimmers, decking substructures and newel posts, gate framing and heavy ironmongery, pergolas, carports, and timber structures, and fixing into sleepers and thicker sections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe 6.0mm gauge is what separates this screw from the 5.0mm at the same length. The thicker shank carries considerably more load and resists the bending and shear forces that occur in heavy framing, gate hanging, and decking posts, where a finer screw can flex or eventually snap. It also drives better into dense, heavy timber such as sleepers and hardwood without the shank twisting under torque, which is where long thinner screws tend to fail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe screw is built around how it grips. A single thread cuts cleanly into the timber and compresses the fibres as it drives, giving high pull-out resistance so structural joints stay tight under load, while the countersunk head pulls flush into the surface and the reinforced drive recess holds the bit securely under the high torque a screw this size demands. Pilot holes are strongly recommended at 6.0mm, particularly near the ends of timbers, in hardwoods, and when fixing into sleepers, as a screw this heavy will split narrow or dry timber if driven straight in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSpecification:\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"accordion\" class=\"product-page__accordian\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"collapse_specs\" class=\"collapse show\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-page__spec-table-wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"product-page__spec-table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"product-page__spec-table__heading\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFIXT\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"product-page__spec-table__heading\"\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"product-page__spec-table__heading\"\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Home \u0026 Trade","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55403691966791,"sku":"FIXT020","price":5.21,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1016\/7759\/6999\/files\/FIXT020_5b842ce0-d0ff-4a5a-99df-ad17a3614243.jpg?v=1791879209","url":"https:\/\/homeandtrade.co.uk\/products\/fixt-performance-woodscrew-6-0-x-100mm-cp-box-100","provider":"Home \u0026 Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
