Product Description
12-V-Ribs Head Fiber Cement Board Screw | No Pre-Drill Clean Flush Finish for Wood or Steel
12-V-Ribs Head Fiber Cement Board Screw is built for fast, clean fastening of fiber cement board to wood or light gauge steel. Its patented countersunk head creates a flush, burr-free finish, while the Wing Tek point supports no pre-drill installation for efficient and reliable performance.
- Countersunk 12-V-Ribs Head
The patented 12-V-Ribs under-head design helps the screw seat neatly into the board for a smooth countersunk finish with reduced burrs. - Wing Tek for No Pre-Drill Installation
The Wing Tek point helps create a clearance hole in the board before engaging the steel, allowing secure fastening without pre-drilling. - Clean Finish for Fiber Cement Board Applications
Designed for fiber cement board installation, this screw helps save installation time while achieving a clean and professional surface finish. -
Application-Specific Drilling Point Options
Available with a standard drilling point for fiber cement board to wood and a Wing Tek drilling point for fiber cement board to steel, this screw is designed to match different substrate requirements for smoother installation and more reliable fastening performance.

Clean, flush, and smooth finish on fiber cement board
This showcase highlights the performance of the 12-V-Ribs Head Fiber Cement Board Screw when fastening 6 mm fiber cement board to three different steel plate thicknesses: 0.32 mm, 0.5 mm, and 1.4 mm. The special ribs under the head help the screw seat neatly into the board surface, creating a more controlled countersunk finish.
For fiber cement board applications where both fastening reliability and surface appearance are important, this design helps deliver a smooth, clean, and flush result. It is especially suitable for visible board installations that require a professional finish without sacrificing installation performance.
Patent Fiber Cement Screw – Drill Point with Wings
- Application
Fiber cement board to steel framing - Point Design
Drill point with wings - Key Feature
No pre-drill installation with countersunk 12-V design - Installation Benefit
Faster fastening with clean and burr-free surface finishing
The Patent Fiber Cement Screw with Drill Point and Wings is designed for fast and efficient fiber cement board to steel installation. The winged drill point helps improve drilling performance through the board before engaging the steel substrate, supporting smoother installation and reducing the need for pre-drilling.
Combined with the countersunk 12-V head design, this screw helps save time and labor while maintaining a clean, burr-free, and flush surface finish after installation. It is a practical solution for projects that require efficient fiber cement board fastening with reliable performance and improved finishing quality.
FAQs
Q1: What is special about the 12-V-ribs head on these fibre cement screws?
A. The patented 12-V-ribs design under the screw head carves into the board as the head seats, allowing the fibre cement screw to sit perfectly flush and burr-free without damaging the surface. This makes it ideal for paint-grade finishes and visible applications where a smooth, clean look is essential.
Q2: Do I need to pre-drill fibre cement boards?
A. No. Our fiber cement screws are engineered to cut in and seat flush without pre-drilling. For wood-to-steel assemblies, models with a winged drill point are specifically designed to speed installation while ensuring a secure, professional finish.
Q3: What do the “wings” do, and do they break off?
A. The wings on certain fibre cement screws ream a clearance hole through the fibre cement board to prevent lifting until the screw threads engage the metal. Once the screw reaches the steel, the wings shear off, allowing the threads to cut into and clamp the metal securely. Use the “wings tek” screw option when fastening fibre cement board to metal.
Q4: Are there recommended substrate thickness ranges for these fiber cement screws?
A. Yes. These screws are tested for fastening 6 mm fibre cement boards to steel substrates of 0.32 mm, 0.5 mm, and 1.4 mm thickness. If your board or steel gauges differ, share the details with us so we can recommend the correct drill-point and wing configuration for your application.
