Metal Framing Screw Suit Light-gauge Metal Applications

Grabber® Construction Products, an international distributor of professional-grade fasteners and construction products, has developed a new metal framing fastener for light-gauge metal construction. The Vector™ screw is extremely fast into 25-gauge metal and can be used effectively up to 20-gauge. Grabber®'s new Vector™ framing screw continues a long tradition of innovation in fastening and fastening systems including Grabber®'s LOX® recess, Scavenger® head drywall screws, and Streaker® screws, which feature a unique twin-lead thread design and 23° point that effectively halve the drive time into light-gauge steel. Grabber®'s new Vector™ screw again significantly reduces drive time and increases productivity with its much sharper and steeper-angled point compared to traditional framing fasteners. Independent testing has demonstrated that Vector™ point screws drive up to eight times faster than IFI SAE J78 fastener penetration standards and 50% faster than competing fasteners.
