Group launch the
world’s leading timber
screw into the UK
Leading external door and timber window hardware specialist, Coastal Group, has teamed up with renowned Danish
screw innovators Red Horse to exclusively launch the highest specification – PAS24:2012 compliant - timber screw.
Used by the world’s leading
window manufacturers such
as Velux and Velfac due to
its quality and performance,
the Red Horse cold forged
screw is only available in the
UK through Coastal Group
– www.coastal-group.com/
redhorse.
Manufactured in both cutting
edge ZYTEC™ coating technology
and A2 stainless steel, the new
screws are designed to provide
a range of benefits to the timber
window and door market to enable
10 0% consistent fixing and high
quality performance.
Cold forged for superior strength
the new screws are available in
20mm to 120 mm sizes, and are
suitable for manual and automated
fixing lines and locking and hinge
systems. Key features include a
unique Headlock design ensuring a
locked tight fixing every time and
an ‘Instant Bite’ self-drilling tip,
ensuring enhanced products and
streamlined production lines.
As part of its dedication to
quality, Coastal Group has also
tested the ZYTEC™ screws when
constructing a window in line with
the Pas24:2012 Part Q test, which
it passed.
Now it is providing the trade with
free sample packs to see for itself
the quality of the new Red Horse
range of timber screws.
“We are absolutely delighted that
through our work and collaboration with Red Horse we are able to
launch this new range of high performance timber screws exclusively
in the UK. The feedback we have
had from the market so far has
been exceptional with quality, ease
of use and consistency through
the locked tight fit and self-drilling
tip really making their mark over
traditional products,” said Coastal
Group Director Anthony Jenner.
“The fact they are also helping
our customer’s products meet the
security requirements set out in the
PAS24:2012 Part Q standards which
came into force on 1st October
is a massive benefit and a further
testament to their quality. We are
now inviting the trade to contact
us and try them for themselves by
requesting one of our new sample
packs,” he added.
Hampshire-based Input Joinery
is one of many firms in the UK to
use the new screws with company
director Martin delighted with the
results.
“When we tried the new Red
Horse drills we were impressed
with the performance and very
happy with every aspect of them.
From the clean look they now give
our locking and hinge systems,
through to the quality of the screw
itself with its Torx head and pre
drill tip,” he said.
