Installing timber cladding requires more than just a standard screw; it demands a fixing that can handle the natural movement of wood while boring through steel subframes without a hitch. Our Woodfix Cladding Screws are specifically engineered for this task, offering a seamless way to secure timber to both light and heavy section steel. Whether you are working on a domestic garden room or a large-scale commercial facade, these fixings provide the structural integrity and clean finish needed for a professional result.
The Woodfix range includes various specifications to match your project’s specific substrate. For thinner steel purlins, our Light Cold self-drillers are the go-to choice, while our Heavy Hot self-drilling screws are built to pierce through structural steel sections up to 12.5mm thick. We also carry stainless steel options, which are highly recommended when working with hardwoods or acidic timbers like Western Red Cedar. Using stainless steel prevents the unsightly black corrosion streaks that often ruin the look of high-end timber over time.
Choosing the right length—from 40mm up to 60mm—and the correct drill point ensures a fast installation and a long-lasting hold. By using high-performance cladding screws that eliminate the need for separate pre-drilling in the metal, you save significant time on-site without compromising on the strength of the build. Browse our selection to find the exact grade and size for your next timber-to-metal application.
