FEATURES

TEKS® Head
HEAD
Proper head style choice will ensure stability during driving, proper
clamping and desired finished appearance.
Fastening THREAD FORM AND DIAMETER
Threads
Features The correct choice of thread form and diameter optimizes low installation
torque with high pullout strength.

PILOT SECTION
Pilot Section The unthreaded portion of the point assures the drilling of the steel
(When Necessary) is completed before the threads begin tapping into the drilled hole.
POINT
The point is designed to efficiently remove material and precisely size the
Flute hole for the thread.
Point
FINISH
Platings and coatings provide lubricity during drilling and tapping as well
as corrosion resistance.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. A standard screwgun with a depth sensitive nosepiece should be used to install Teks. For optimal
fastener performance, the screwgun should be a minimum of 4 amps and have a RPM range of 0-2000.

2. Adjust the screwgun nosepiece to properly seat the fastener.


3. New magnetic sockets must be correctly set before use. Remove chip build-up as needed.
4. The fastener is fully seated when the head is flush with the work surface.
5. Overdriving may result in torsional failure of the fastener or stripout of the substrate.
6. The fastener must penetrate beyond the metal structure a minimum of 3 pitches of thread.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. A standard screwgun with a depth sensitive nosepiece should be used to install Teks. For optimal
fastener performance, the screwgun should be a minimum of 6 amps and have a RPM range of 0-2500.
(Maximum 1800 RPM is recommended for Teks 5 fasteners)
2. Adjust the screwgun nosepiece to properly seat the fastener.
3. New magnetic sockets must be correctly set before use. Remove chip build-up as needed.
4. The fastener is fully seated when the head is flush with the work surface.
5. Overdriving may result in torsional failure of the fastener or stripout of the substrate.
6. The fastener must penetrate beyond the metal structure a minimum of 3 pitches of thread.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. A standard screwgun with a depth sensitive nosepiece should be used to install Teks. For optimal
fastener performance, the screwgun should be a minimum of 6 amps and have an RPM range of 0-2500.
2. Adjust the screwgun nosepiece to properly seat the fastener.
3. Worn or damaged bit tip should be replaced.
4. The fastener is fully seated when the head is flush with the work surface.
5. Overdriving may result in torsional failure of the fastener or stripout of the substrate.
6. The fastener must penetrate beyond the metal structure a minimum of 3 pitches of thread.
7. All #10 diameter “Winged” parts must be driven into a minimum of 16 GA steel thickness.
8. All 1/4 and #12 diameter “Winged” parts must be driven into a minimum of 1/8” steel in order to break
the wings consistently.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. A standard screwgun with a depth sensitive nosepiece should be used to install Teks. For optimal
fastener performance, the screwgun should be a minimum of 6 amps and have an RPM range of 0-2500.
2. Adjust the screwgun nosepiece to properly seat the fastener.
3. New magnetic sockets must be correctly set before use. Remove chip build-up as needed.
4. Overdriving may result in torsional failure of the fastener or stripout of the substrate.
5. The fastener must penetrate beyond the metal structure a minimum of 3 pitches of thread.

Notes:
• Dekite can be installed over or between the ribs of standard panels.
• Can be installed between the rib sections of a Standing Seam Roofs or Architectural Panel.
Do Not install over the rib section of the SSR or Architectural Panel ribs.
• Generally no sealant is required where the Dektite collar provides a compression fit around
the pipe. However, some metal pipes and flues include a seam which may require a local
application of sealant at the point where the Dektite colla crosses the seam.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. A standard screwgun with a depth sensitive nosepiece should be used to install cement board fasteners.
For optimal fastener performance, the screwgun should be a minimum of 6 amps and have an RPM
range of 0-2500.
2. Adjust the screwgun nosepiece to properly seat the fastener.
3. Worn or damaged bit tips should be replaced.
4. The fastener is fully seated when the head is flush with the work surface.
5. Overdrivng may result in torsional failure of the fastener or stripout of the substrate.
6. The fastener must penetrate beyond the metal structure a minimum of 3 pitches of thread.
