S-97498A188 M16 x 70 mm DIN 571 Wood Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with zinc-plated steel construction for extended service life in humid or outdoor wood applications
• Exceptional driving torque transmission through the external hex head design, preventing cam-out and ensuring secure installation
• Enhanced pull-out resistance with the 6mm coarse thread pitch providing maximum holding power in wood substrates
• Reduced splitting and easier installation thanks to the pointed tip and thread-forming tapping method that displaces material without pre-drilling
• Optimized load distribution through partial threading (42mm minimum thread length) that concentrates grip where needed most
• Industry-standard compatibility with DIN 571 specifications ensuring reliable performance and interchangeability
• Environmental regulation compliance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH requirements for safe use in regulated projects

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These heavy-duty M16 wood screws are engineered to solve critical challenges in timber construction and industrial wood assembly. The zinc-plated steel construction provides essential corrosion protection for outdoor structures, decking, and timber framing exposed to environmental elements. The thread-forming design eliminates the need for pilot holes in many applications, reducing installation time while creating stronger, more secure connections by compressing wood fibers rather than removing them. The external hex drive allows for high-torque installation with standard tools, preventing stripping and ensuring consistent clamping force. With partial threading and 6mm pitch, these screws deliver superior resistance to vibration loosening and pull-out forces in demanding wood-to-wood and wood-to-metal applications.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This M16 x 70mm wood screw features metric threading with 6mm pitch, 42mm minimum thread length, and partially threaded shank design. Manufactured to DIN 571 standards for dimensional accuracy and performance reliability. The product is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring safe use in commercial and industrial applications.
