Grabber cement board and high-density sheathing screws have been specifically designed for use with cement board and high-density exterior sheathing. These exterior grade GrabberGard® corrosion resistant fasteners have a .40” (10.5mm) wafer head with nibs to facilitate seating and minimize strip out. Grabber drill point screws are for use for the attachment of these boards to steel from 20 to 14 gauge.

Grabber cement board screws meet the USG Durock specification for minimum head diameter of 0.400”.

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.

Benefits

  • Grabber’s Pro-Fit™ # 2 Phillips recess is a precision recess designed for better bit engagement resulting in less wobble or strip-out.
  • .40-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® 1500 hour 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.

Installation Guidelines

Installation Guidelines:
Use a standard screwgun with a depth-sensitive nose piece. Suggested screwgun specification for optimal performance – 4 amps minimum and 4000 RPM.

  • Install with head flush with board, not need to counter sink.
  • Overdriving may result in failure of the fastener or strip out of the
  • work surface.
