Wood screw Ø10X180

The Strofix wood screw Ø10 × 180 is a carbon steel screw with a special 20 μm multilayer C4 EVO coating and epoxy resin surface treatment, designed for fastening metal sheets and brackets to wood in outdoor environments. The screw is supplied with an integrated 4 mm nylon washer. Available in raw finish or three RAL colour finishes: RAL 9005 (jet black), RAL 7016 (anthracite grey), or RAL 8017 (chocolate brown). Total length 180 mm, shaft diameter 10 mm, thread length 150 mm (b). Pre-drilling in wood: 0.6 × Ø (6 mm pilot hole recommended).

The wood screw provides a direct metal-to-wood fixing for railing brackets, glass canopy support brackets, and other structural metalwork mounted on wooden substrates. The C4 EVO multilayer coating provides high outdoor corrosion resistance — significantly beyond standard zinc galvanizing — making the screw suitable for exposed exterior installations. The three RAL colour options match the most common facade finishes used in architectural metalwork: black, anthracite, and brown. The integrated nylon washer provides a seal between the screw head and the metal surface, preventing water ingress at the fixing point.

Select the RAL colour in the dropdown at order time to match the bracket or component finish.

Use cases:

• Fastening glass canopy brackets to wooden structural members
• Securing railing post base plates to timber decks with a colour-matched fixing
• Metal-to-wood fixing for French balcony brackets on timber-framed facades
• Outdoor railing and balustrade bracket mounting on wooden substrates
• Any exterior metal-to-wood structural connection requiring corrosion-resistant colour-matched screws

FAQ:

What is the screw material?

The screw is carbon steel with a C4 EVO multilayer coating (20 μm) and epoxy resin surface treatment. It is not stainless steel — the corrosion protection comes from the advanced coating system rather than the base material.

What RAL colours are available?

Three colours: RAL 9005 (jet black), RAL 7016 (anthracite grey), and RAL 8017 (chocolate brown). These match the most common facade and bracket finishes.

What is the C4 EVO coating?

C4 EVO is a multilayer corrosion protection coating that provides high resistance to outdoor weathering. The "C4" designation refers to a high corrosion class suitable for exterior environments. The coating is topped with an epoxy resin surface treatment in the selected RAL colour.

What are the screw dimensions?

Total length is 180 mm (L), shaft diameter is 10 mm (d1), and thread length is 150 mm (b). Pre-drill the pilot hole at 0.6 × Ø (6 mm) in the timber.

Is a washer included?

Yes. The screw includes an integrated 4 mm nylon washer that seals between the screw head and the metal surface, preventing water ingress at the fixing point.

How does this differ from the double-thread hanger bolt?

The double-thread hanger bolt has a machine thread on one end for a nut, making it a through-bolt that clamps a base plate from the other side of the timber. This wood screw drives directly through the metal component into the wood from one side — no nut required. Choose based on the installation configuration and whether access to the back of the timber is available.

About Anchors & Screws

Anchors and screws are the mechanical fasteners that secure glass adaptors, canopy brackets, railing posts, French balcony holders and other architectural hardware to the building substrate. They transfer structural loads from the visible hardware into concrete, masonry, insulated façades or timber frames.

Strofix supplies 16 products in this category: steel anchors in four lengths (150, 220, 320 and 400 mm) with rod diameters of Ø16 and Ø20 mm, an anchor sleeve (M10 × 80 mm), a spacer tube (L = 100 mm), individual screws (M10 × 45), cup nuts (M10), washers, double stainless-steel threads (M8, 60 and 100 mm), a wood screw (Ø10 × 180 mm), and pre-matched screw-and-fastener sets for 1, 2, 3 or 4 glass canopy brackets — configurable for masonry without insulation, masonry with insulation and timber-frame construction.

Materials are AISI 304 stainless steel and S235 structural steel. The correct fastener depends on wall type, hardware product, bolt size and required embedment depth.
