Screw cimco 190102 — galvanized metal screw for fibreboard, 40 mm length, 4 mm thread diameter, 1 pc

Cimco 190102 is a single galvanized metal screw designed for reliable fastening of fibreboard and similar sheet materials. The screw measures 40 mm in length with a 4 mm thread diameter and is supplied as one piece per pack. Galvanization provides basic corrosion protection for indoor and semi-exposed applications, while the metal construction ensures stable mechanical performance during assembly and repair tasks.

Advantages

The galvanized coating improves resistance to rust compared with untreated steel, extending service life in non-submerged environments. The 4 mm thread diameter offers sufficient holding power in fibreboard without excessive splitting, and the 40 mm length is suitable for joining single or thin layers of panel material. Supplied individually, the screw is convenient for small repairs, sample fittings, and situations where precise quantities are needed.

Key specifications

How to use

Select an appropriate pilot hole or use a countersink if the fibreboard requires reduced splitting risk; for thinner panels, a smaller pilot drill can help maintain material integrity. Position the screw and drive it with a compatible screwdriver or a low-torque cordless driver to avoid over-tightening, which can crush fibreboard. For best results, ensure the mating material provides sufficient backing to accept the screw and align components before final tightening.

Recommendations

Use indoors or in sheltered outdoor locations to maximize the lifespan of the galvanized finish. For constant outdoor exposure or contact with treated timber or salty environments, consider fasteners with enhanced corrosion protection. Store the screw in a dry place and handle with appropriate personal protective equipment when drilling or driving into panels.
