These non-combustible screws are designed for light to medium duty applications including installing fire-rated clips and other electrical installations.
Optimaxx WallBite® is suitable for a wide range of materials including concrete, brick, stone, plasterboard and wood. No pre-drilling is required in wood and plasterboard applications and up to 5.5mm pre-drilled holes may be required for some masonry materials. Available in sizes 6.5mm x 32mm and 6.5mm x 38mm, Optimaxx WallBite® screws offer white and chrome head finishes.

The screws are coated with the renowned Maxxtect exterior coating making them suitable for both interior and exterior application and also benefit from a Torx drive ensuring there is no ‘Cam Out’ in more demanding concrete and brick applications.
