Timco SOLO Gold Woodscrews – Boxes

Timco SOLO gold woodscrews are the kind of everyday fixing that earns its place in the van. A reliable single thread design that works across softwood, hardwood and man-made boards, these screws handle the bread and butter jobs that keep sites moving. The gold passivated finish offers decent corrosion resistance for interior work and sheltered exterior applications, while the wax lubricant coating means less effort on the drill and fewer stripped heads at the end of a long day.

The double countersunk head is a design detail worth noting. It reduces the likelihood of head shear under torque and sits flush without the need for pre-drilling in most timbers. Combined with the 25° sharp point, you get a fast start and clean thread acceptance no wandering, no splitting on edges. The 40° deep single thread provides serious pull-out resistance, which matters when you are fixing into sheet materials or end grain where cheaper screws tend to let go.

Why tradespeople choose SOLO Gold screws

There is a reason these screws have become a site staple across the UK. They strike a balance between performance and value that makes sense for joiners, carpenters, kitchen fitters and general builders. The full thread on sizes up to 75mm means maximum grip along the entire shank. Longer screws from 80mm upward feature a 70mm thread length, which is plenty for structural fixings into timber frames and battens.

The range covers everything from delicate 3.0 x 12mm screws for trim and beading through to hefty 6.0 x 200mm fixings for serious structural work. That breadth means you can standardise on one product line and know what you are getting every time. Consistency matters when you are fixing hundreds of screws a week.

Built for real site conditions

The wax coating does more than just help the screw drive smoothly. It adds a layer of protection against moisture during storage and installation, which is useful when boxes spend time in damp vans or on half-finished sites. These are not marine grade fixings for fully exposed exterior work you will want stainless or a heavier duty coating but for most indoor joinery and protected outdoor applications, the SOLO Gold holds up well.

Available in boxes of 100 or 200, you can stock up on the sizes you burn through and grab smaller quantities of the oddball lengths. It is the kind of practical flexibility that saves money without leaving you short on a Friday afternoon.
