Forgefix Multi Purpose Zinc Plated Screws – MPS550ZP

This 5mm x 50mm Forgefix Multi-Purpose Screw is supplied in a pack of 200, providing excellent value for demanding projects. The 5mm diameter combined with 50mm length makes this variant ideal for heavier duty applications where increased strength and deeper penetration are required. Featuring a Pozidriv compatible drive system and countersunk head, this screw creates a flush finish with substrates for a clean, professional appearance. The zinc plated coating provides excellent corrosion resistance by forming a protective barrier that prevents oxidation, with zinc oxide forming a fine white dust that doesn't compromise substrate integrity. The Pozidriv drive system offers distinct advantages over traditional Phillips screws, with four additional contact points and no rounded corners. This eliminates cam-out when proper tooling is used, allowing great torque to be applied with confidence during installation. The screw head features a distinctive 45-degree embossed line for easy identification. The single thread design delivers both higher pull-out values and quicker insertion, making installation efficient whilst maintaining secure fixing strength in demanding applications. Suitable for use with PVCu, timber, chipboard, MDF and similar materials across all trades including joinery, electrical and plumbing work.
