Working length explanatory diagram

In order to securely fasten the Drill Screw, the thread must completely protrude 3 pitches from the base steel plate. Therefore, the max. working length should be calculated by the length below the neck (L) -the length of the drill point (Ln) -3 pitches, and then select the suitable drill screw based on the working length.

※Caution: When installing the Drill Screw, it may not be possible to secure the specified working length depending on the condition of the jobsite. Please use it after checking the actual situation of the site.
