Type M8 TrailSec Powertite®
Standard floor screw for commercial vehicles

The M8 TrailSec Powertite® with ballistic, trilobular tip is particularly easy to use and impresses with its low cutting torque. The fully rounded thread cross-section has a high load-bearing capacity, as well as high vibration resistance and tear-out resistance.

The trumpet knurled head mills into the base wood in non-pre-drilled holes and reliably prevents material breakouts. The Torx T40 drive ensures maximum service life for the bit. 

The surface finish Geomet 321 Plus VL (silver) is used for maximum corrosion protection (720 h salt spray test). The DF921 sliding coating ensures low cutting torque. We can also offer alternative colors to meet your design requirements.

The ARNOLD TrailSec Powertite® M8 is the ideal solution for all types of wood when drilling through wood and steel frames with the same diameter. The screw is case-hardened and enables screw connections in steel up to a strength of 520 N/mm². The tough, elastic core withstands the high forces exerted when wood swells due to moisture.
