Cutting Tail(Type 17) Roofing Screw

Wholesale Type 17 Cutting Tail Roofing Screws | Premium Timber Fasteners

In residential timber house construction, heavy-duty wooden framing, and outdoor roofing contracting, securing metal cladding to wood substrates demands specialized woodworking engineering. Our factory-direct Cutting Tail (Type 17) roofing screws are precision-engineered to prevent timber splitting, delivering rapid wood penetration and massive pull-out resistance under extreme wind loads.

The Type 17 Flute Advantage & Metallurgical Engineering

Manufactured from premium cold-heading quality C1022A carbon steel or grade-304 stainless steel, our fasteners undergo a continuous, mathematically controlled hardening process. This ensures an ultra-sharp cutting edge balanced with a ductile core to prevent head-shearing under high installation torque.

Precision-Formed Type 17 Cutting Tail:Featuring a specialized slotted groove (flute) at the screw tip. As the screw drives in, this sharp notch acts as a miniature wood drill bit, automatically slicing and clearing timber fibers to eliminate internal pressure. This completely prevents wood splitting, even when driving near the edges of hard timbers or fragile fiberboards.

Deep, Wide Single-Lead Wood Threads:Designed with an aggressive sharp thread profile. Unlike fine threads that chew and strip wood grain, these deep wood threads imbed themselves firmly into softwoods, treated timbers, and MDF, generating maximum long-term mechanical grip.

Weather-Tight EPDM Sealing Flange:Features a high-torque hexagonal head with an integrated flange, perfectly pre-assembled with a vulcanized EPDM bonded rubber washer. Under compression, the resilient rubber liner completely seals the penetration hole, absorbing thermal expansion and resisting ozone cracking from -40°C to 120°C.
