FAQs about Velocity Pozi Woodscrews

Do I need to drill a pilot hole for Timco Velocity screws?

In most softwoods, no pilot hole is required thanks to the twin-cut design, which reduces splitting. For hardwoods, a small pilot hole ensures easier driving and a clean finish.

What’s the difference between Pozi and Phillips screws?

Pozi screws, like these, have an improved cross design that gives better grip and reduces cam-out when using a driver. This means less slipping compared to Phillips screws.

Why should I use countersunk screws?

Countersunk heads allow the screw to sit flush with the surface, giving a neat and professional finish.

Are they suitable for outdoor use?

The ZY coating offers light corrosion resistance, making them more suited for indoor use. For external use, stainless steel screws or coated exterior screws are recommended.

Can I use these screws in hardwood as well as softwood?

Yes, they’re designed for both. A pilot hole is advisable in hardwoods to prevent splitting and make the installation easier.

Do Timco Velocity screws work with impact drivers?

Yes, they are compatible with cordless drills and impact drivers, making installation fast and efficient.

How strong are Velocity screws compared to standard wood screws?

The Velocity screws are designed to drive faster, grip better, and split less wood than standard screws, making them a strong and reliable screw for professional and DIY enthusiasts alike.

Can I use Timco Velocity screws with MDF or chipboard?
