NO MORE RIVETING

Rapid edge part fastening

SIMPLY QUICK

Are you tired of spending hours attaching rivets? Then we have the solution for you! With our folded part screw, we say 'no more rivets' and offer you an efficient alternative. Find out more about how we fasten flashings and discover how you can save time and effort. Let's work together to find a faster and more effective way of fastening flashings!

FILIGREE APPEARANCE AND RELIABLE IN USE

 

Drilling screw for edge part fastening and reinforcing of supporting shells. Fixing edge part sheets such as corner panels, verge angles, flashings or bracing supporting structures

To the edge part screw

SIT® 20 DRIVE
  • For wobble-free screwing.
LOCKING SERRATION
  • High processing reliability thanks to locking serration, which makes it much more difficult to overtighten in thin sheet metal.
PAN HEAD
  • Small filigree rounded head for an attractive appearance.
  • No damage to the vapour barrier if one is present.
SELF-TAPPING SCREW THREAD
  • Special thread - higher retention force due to elastic material displacement in the substructure.
REDUCED DRILL TIP
  • Small drill hole diameter guarantees high retention force even in thin materials.

 

 

  • Bit is held securely by the SIT® drive which prevents dropped screws.
  • The SIT® drive allwos wobble-free screwing with just one hand.
  • The free hand can therefore be used to hold the edge part in place.

Beautifully inconspicuous appearance on the building envelope, thanks to the small, rounded screw head. Available in various RAL colours as standard – other colours on request.

SAVE TIME AND MONEY

 

The sharp-edged drill point prevents the drill bit from getting lost during the drilling process compared to a conventional drill bit that has already completed several drilling processes. In addition, the reduced drill point of the fluted screw significantly minimises the occurrence of protruding chips at the edge of the drill hole in the sheet metal, which often occur with the classic processing method using twist drills. Only in rare cases does a filigree chip occur, which can be easily removed before tightening the screw.
 
Compared to rivets, recoilless processing prevents scratches and dents on the building. In addition, the locking serration under the screw head makes it difficult to overtighten the screws on thin sheet metal.

 

Neither the pre-drilling work step nor the associated tool change and additional machine/tool costs are necessary. Fewer work steps and fewer tools are required.

 

Can be used not only for edge part attachment but also for reinforcing load-bearing shells. The screw head will not damage the vapour barrier covering them.

The flashing screw therefore ensures parts can be dismantled reliably.

CONVENTIONAL PROCESSING

PRE-DRILLING CARRIES RISK

 

Multiple drilling processes wear tools out and leave them blunt. There is a high risk of the drill bit wandering and damaging the edge part.

The drill chuck may also contact the edge part during pre-drilling and cause a dent. It would then be necessary to repair or replace the edge part.

DISADVANTAGES OF RIVETING

 

Pre-drilling generates a large quantity of drill chips. Together with the rivet mandrels and worn drill bits, these must be collected and disposed of in a further work step.
