Painted Roofing Screws

A painted roofing screw is a steel fastener in the form of a threaded rod with a sharp point or drill tip and a hex head with a rubber washer.

The washer protects the connection point from moisture ingress and increases joint strength.

Roofing screws are made of zinc-plated or stainless steel. The heads and washers are painted according to the RAL color system. This allows selecting fasteners to match the roof covering color or to contrast with it.

The main application is fastening metal roof tiles, flashing elements or flexible roofing to different types of bases:

• for wood, fasteners with a wide thread pitch and a shortened drill tip are used;
• self-tapping screws with a fine thread are used to fasten to metal;
• for concrete, products with a variable thread diameter are needed.

Roofing screws are also used when cladding facades with colored panels made of metal profile.
