Description
The Timco 4.8 x 16mm window screws are friction stay fabrication screws for PVCu window frame work. Designed for attaching friction stays with countersunk holes to steel reinforced PVCu frames, they are also commonly used as repair screws where existing fixing holes have become stripped.
These window screws feature a shallow pan countersunk head, PH2 Phillips drive and self-drilling point for fast installation into reinforced frames. The self-tapping high-high twin thread helps create a secure fixing, making them useful for trade window fitting, repair and fabrication work.
The zinc finish provides corrosion resistance for suitable internal, sheltered and low humidity applications. Supplied in a box of 1000, these Timco window screws are ideal for installers, window fitters, fabrication teams and trade users who need a reliable bulk fixing for friction stay installation.
These screws are suitable for PVCu frame hardware work where the correct screw type, size and fixing method are required. Always check the frame section, reinforcement and hardware manufacturer guidance before installation.

How to Use
Select a compatible PH2 Phillips driver bit and keep the driver aligned with the screw head during installation.
Position the friction stay or compatible hardware correctly, then drive the screw steadily into the reinforced PVCu frame section. Avoid overtightening, as this may damage the frame, hardware or fixing point.
