The SPAX typical drive T-STAR plus is a so-called internal hexagon. This shape increases the contact surface of our T-STAR plus, allowing the T-STAR plus bits to fit optimally in the screw head. The best possible power transmission from the screwdriver to the screw through T-STAR plus enables quick work and is significantly more efficient than all other drives.

The screws with partial thread are excellently suited for fastening thin components such as wood-based panels, boards, or floorboards to thicker components like beams or posts. The short thread screws into the thick component, while the unthreaded shaft remains in the attachment. This creates maximum clamping pressure between the two. The unthreaded part should be at least as thick as the attachment.

The term 4CUT refers to the square shape of the screw tip. These edges displace the wood fibers during insertion and create space for the screw's core diameter. The spreading pressure exerted by the core in the wood is thus reduced, preventing the wood from splitting near the edges. Additionally, the required torque of the cordless screwdriver is reduced since the screw's core does not have to "squeeze" into the wood.

With WIROX, SPAX has developed a coating that is far superior to galvanization in terms of corrosion protection. WIROX does not use chromium (VI), and the screws remain just as load-bearing and environmentally friendly even after years in non-directly weathered outdoor areas. WIROX screws are the first choice for all open structures without direct weather exposure, such as carports or pergolas. For direct weather exposure, such as terraces, we recommend our screws in stainless steel.
