Truss connections are essential for structural stability, particularly in regions exposed to high winds. TrussLok screws provide a high-performance fastening option that simplifies installation and enhances structural integrity. From ease of use to exceptional wind uplift resistance, here’s why TrussLok should be considered for your next project.
The TrussLok Advantage
- Exceptional Withdrawal Resistance TrussLok’s fully threaded shank offers unmatched withdrawal resistance, securing the truss connection under extreme wind conditions. Builders can rely on TrussLok for long-lasting stability and safety.
- Decrease Risk with Safe Application Installing TrussLok from within the building significantly reduces the risk of accidents compared to working from outside or above the trusses. As long as the screw is inside the truss, the published capacity is achieved, providing assurance and reducing the risk of installation errors.
- Rapid and Easy Installation The cutting tip of TrussLok screws allows for quick entry, making installation faster and more efficient. For added precision, using a simple block of timber as a guide enables repeatable, accurate installation, streamlining the process without compromising on quality.
- Convenient and Practical Design Each box of TrussLok screws includes hexagonal drive bits, ensuring builders have the right tools on hand. Additionally, the screw head is stamped with length and product information, simplifying on-site inspection and verification and enhancing accuracy.
- Durability for Longevity TrussLok screws are zinc-plated for robust durability. This protective coating ensures that they retain integrity over time, even in challenging environmental conditions, providing confidence that the screws will perform reliably throughout the structure’s lifespan.
- Compliance with Australian Standards Fully engineered and tested to meet Australian Standards, TrussLok screws adhere to stringent safety and performance criteria. Builders can trust in TrussLok’s certification for a compliant and dependable fastening solution.
Versatile Application
TrussLok screws are versatile, suitable for both single and double wall plates. For single wall plate applications, they are driven vertically through the wall plate into the truss. For double wall plate installations, they can be skew-driven at a specified angle, ensuring secure placement across various construction scenarios.
For builders aiming to deliver secure, durable structures, TrussLok offers an exceptional solution for wind uplift resistance. Its advanced engineering, ease of installation and adherence to Australian Standards make TrussLok an essential tool in modern construction. Choose TrussLok for your next project to experience superior reliability and performance.
