SPAX application areas in timber construction

 

In timber construction, SPAX offers the right solutions for carports, balconies, rafter insulation, roof truss and transverse tensile reinforcement.

Carport

Carports must be reliably stable and secure – this is ensured above all by the connecting elements. Since the screws have to absorb high tensile and shear forces and dissipate them to the wood, texture and quality are of paramount importance: With SPAX disc head screws with partial thread and SPAX fully threaded screws with cylinder head or countersunk head, you are on the safe side.

Balcony

Balconies are highly stressed and particularly safety-relevant wooden constructions – they require a stable hold and place high demands on the wooden connections, because the screws must absorb high tensile and shear forces and dissipate them via the wood to the foundation. Here, SPAX disc head screws with partial thread and SPAX fully threaded screws with cylinder head or countersunk head are the right choice.

Rafter insulation

Rafter insulation creates shear and suction forces that the fasteners must reliably absorb. The SPAX Iso ensures good workmanship and high safety with its retractable cylinder head, its fixing thread, its CUT tip and its WIROX surface as corrosion protection.

Truss

Whether rafter or purlin roof, the roof truss is the load-bearing framework of your roof. The screws used transmit high forces to the wooden joints and ensure a secure hold. The SPAX partial threaded screws with disc head, countersunk head or cylinder head as well as the SPAX fully threaded screws meet all static requirements.

Transverse tension reinforcement

Transverse tensile reinforcements in the form of screws or threaded rods must be able to safely absorb the highest tensile forces and divert them into the wood via the form and force adhesion of their threads. The SPAX fully threaded screws and threaded rods provide the necessary secure hold.
