Attaches high density sheathing to heavy gauge steel (20-14 ga.). These fasteners meet Hardie board specification for minimum head diameter of 0.375". Superior GrabberGard® exterior-grade coating provides additional corrosion protection.

LOX® recess 8 points of drive contact:
LOX drive technology was created to solve the problems of all the other recess types. The recess is much less likely to strip out as compared to other recesses.

GrabberGard® exterior grade coating
GrabberGard metal finish is a high-grade proprietary metal surface processing technology that prevents corrosion. It is a duplex coating constituting a zinc substrate and organic polymer topcoat. The distinguishing feature of GrabberGard is the joining and encapsulation the substrate with the fused organic surface coating. These layers are bonded together through thermal fusion, and this unique method of combining layers results in a combination of the coating films.

Application:Sheathing to Metal

Bit Tip:LOX Bit Tip

Coating:GrabberGard® Gray

Gauge:8

Benefits

  • LOX® recess was designed for todays screw guns and for applications where high-torque is required. LOX® will not strip out like most other recesses.
  • .375-in flat wafer head with nibs design provides better holding power in cement board to light gauge metal applications. Special nibs self-countersink as the screw seats.
  • GrabberGard® limited lifetime exterior-grade coating provides additional protection against corrosion in most exterior applications.
  • consistently formed extra sharp pilot point starts and drills easily into heavy gauge metal framing. Special winged drill point clears away sheathing material as the fastener drives in.
