8 × 50 mm Hexagon Head Wood Screw Set – 4 DIN 571 Screws with Washers
This wood screw set contains four 8 × 50 mm hexagon head wood screws together with four matching washers. The set provides a convenient solution for a wide range of fastening, installation, repair and retrofit applications involving suitable wooden substrates.
Each screw has a nominal diameter of 8 mm and a length of 50 mm. This makes the screws suitable for appropriately dimensioned fastening tasks involving brackets, mounting plates, supports, rails and similar installation components.
The hexagon head allows the screws to be installed using a suitable spanner, socket wrench or socket attachment. This provides secure tool engagement and allows the required torque to be transferred to the screw in a controlled manner.
DIN 571 hexagon head wood screws
The set contains four hexagon head wood screws to DIN 571.
This type of screw is commonly used for substantial fastening applications in suitable timber materials and related mounting constructions.
Typical applications may include:
brackets
mounting consoles
mounting plates
fixing rails
antenna mounting equipment
workshop constructions
timber structures
repair work
retrofit installations
The substrate and the complete construction must always be suitable for the selected screw dimensions.
Hexagon head for effective tool engagement
The hexagon head provides a large and easily accessible contact area for suitable tools.
A spanner, ratchet or socket can be used to install the screw while maintaining good control over the applied torque.
This design is also useful for future maintenance or dismantling work, as the screw can be loosened again using the appropriate tool.
Galvanised steel surface
The screws are made from steel and feature a galvanised surface.
The zinc coating provides basic corrosion protection for the underlying steel and makes the screws suitable for many general installation applications under appropriate environmental conditions.
For permanently damp, chemically aggressive or highly corrosive environments, fasteners specifically designed for these conditions should be considered.
Four matching washers included
Four galvanised washers are included in the set – one for each screw.
The washers increase the contact area between the screw head and the component being fastened. This distributes the clamping force over a larger surface.
This can be particularly useful when fastening:
metal brackets
mounting plates
consoles
rails
support components
other mounting hardware
As both screws and washers are supplied together, there is no need to select the individual components separately for suitable applications.
Suitable for new installations, repairs and retrofits
The screw set can be used for both new installations and repair work.
For new installations, suitable brackets, plates or other mounting components can be attached to an appropriate wooden substrate.
For existing constructions, the screws can also be used to replace old or damaged fasteners, provided that the dimensions and design are suitable for the application.
They may also be used for retrofit work when additional mounting components or brackets need to be installed.
Suitable for antenna and mounting applications
One possible area of application is antenna and general mounting equipment.
The screws may be used for suitable antenna brackets, mounting consoles or fixing plates where the substrate is appropriate for wood screws.
The four identical screws are particularly convenient for components requiring several fastening points.
Important information on load capacity
The load-bearing capacity of a completed fastening cannot be determined from the screw dimensions alone.
Relevant factors include:
type and condition of the substrate
timber type
installation depth
edge and centre distances
number of fastening points
component geometry
direction and magnitude of the applied load
For structurally or safety-relevant installations, the complete fastening arrangement must be selected and dimensioned according to the specific application.
