BUYING QUESTIONS ANSWERED

Before you order.

Which pack should I buy?

Choose singles for the exact quantity you need. A 50-screw cage costs less per screw than singles; a 100-screw cage has our lowest standard unit price. Each cage contains one length. Compare the unit price and total in the shop.

How do I choose a screw length?

Our F-series screws are 76mm in diameter and available in 1,000, 1,250, 1,500 and 2,000mm lengths. The 1,000mm model has a 2.5mm wall; the longer models have a 3mm wall. Length alone does not establish suitability. Use the foundation design, ground information and required installation depth.

How much weight can a ground screw support?

There is no single load rating that applies to every site. Compression, uplift and lateral resistance depend on the screw, soil, installed depth and connections. A foundation designer should check the required loads and specify any testing. Do not use a generic tonnes-per-screw figure to choose a foundation.

Are brackets and adapters included?

The F-series specification lists a fixed 200 × 8mm flange and M16 connection. Do not assume a timber bracket, installation adapter or fastener pack is included. Confirm the components against your frame and machine before ordering.

Can I install the screws myself?

Installation needs suitable driving equipment, a checked support layout, knowledge of buried services and a method appropriate to the site. The machine and adapter must match the screw. Contact us about equipment or installation if you are unsure.

What should I check before delivery?

Check the screw lengths, number of packs, delivery postcode, site access and unloading arrangements. Stock status is shown beside the buying controls. For unavailable products, ask the team for confirmed supply timing before scheduling installation.
