PAM Collated Deck Screws Offer High Torque, No Waste Design To Eliminate Common Problems

August, 2009 -- PAM Fastening Technology offers a line of PAMFAST™ Magni-coated collated composite deck screws that when used with the PAM Auto Feed system eliminate many common problems and reduced the time required for installation. In addition, the resulting deck has a more consistent countersink for all the screws meaning a cleaner, more attractive deck surface every time.

The PAMFAST™ Composite Deck Screws have a special head design that eliminates "mushrooming" of the composite deck during installation and a dual thread that pulls the deck board and joist together more tightly. Unlike most other composite deck screws, the PAMFAST™ collated screw does not require pre-drilling meaning time savings that are noticeable on every job. The system reduces work hours and ensures uniformity of the countersink and when used with the extension pole means no bending over to insert the screw.

PAM Fastening Technology's PAMFAST Composite Deck Screws

The thread design reduces driving torque by over 23% versus other comparable screws resulting in no wobble or waste and a considerably longer lasting bit.

Available in four coated colors: brown, red, tan, gray, as well as stainless steel, The PAMFAST™ composite deck screws resist corrosion and rust and color match with most decking materials. The screws are available in #10 by 2 ½ inch and #10 by 3 inch sizes.

The PAMFAST™ composite deck screw is designed for use with PAM's P13 Autofeed Screwdriver System that uses collated screws to quickly attach deck boards. The PAMFAST™ composite screw can also be used with other Autofeed Systems including Milwaukee, Senco, Grabber, Hitti and Hitachi brands. They are also designed for use with products such as TREX®, CHOICE DECK®, WEATHERBEST®, NEXWOOD®, EPOCH® and EVERGREEN®.

These screws are part of the PAM Fastening Technology's family of fastening systems that include a wide variety of collated screws for use in their Autofeed Screw System in multiple applications including drywall, roof tile, subfloor and wood decking (treated and exotic lumbers).
