Drywall installation… you either hate it, or you’re really good at it. In either case, Pre-Set Screws and Nails is currently working onย a new patent-pending installation process for hanging Vinyl Siding. Using Ourย Pneumatic/Gas delivery systems will reduce installation time and willย fit all thicknesses of insulation, while still giving you the abilityย to adjust each panel for a perfect fit. It’s a better mousetrap, or at least has all the appearances of being so.
Theย design of this preset screw device will benefit the consumer in multipleย ways. First, the device is designed so that when it penetrates the faceย paper of the sheetrock, it will not tear the facing of the paper, therebyย compromising the strength of the paper. This design allows a clean finishย around the device. The face paper will be drawn down into a conicalย shape between the device and the sheetrock allowing the first pointย of bond to the stud. The second point of bond occurs as the device’sย conical shape inserts into the gypsum causing increased pressure asย it advances into the sheetrock. The final bond occurs when the flat-bottomedย device contacts the back paper of the sheetrock, and, as the deviceย does not rotate, it will not tear the back paper.
Also, this deviceย would assure the absolute bond to the stud, due to the compression theย device provides as the total application is completed, thereby maintainingย structural integrity. There will no longer be an opportunity of a voidย between the sheetrock and the stud allowing an uninsured bond. Theseย 3 bonding points far surpass the traditional way that drywall is appliedย to a stud, regardless if it is wood or steel. Currently the screw breaksย the front of the paper, while weakening its structural integrity. Theย result of such failure is a weakening of the overall support of theย sheetrock.
Additionally, by using the preset screw device, it allowsย for the easy and effortless removal of the screw that was inserted offย the stud, or in error. Currently, when a screw is inserted in error,ย or you miss a stud, it is very time consuming to remove it. Often times,ย it strips the sheetrock, and you need to pry it out with perhaps, anย alternate tool. With the preset depth device screw, the error of a missedย stud is painless. You can simply grab the preset device with your fingersย and remove it, as the preset device will never penetrate the sheet rock.ย The final benefit is protection, the preset depth device allows theย consumer to protect their fingers from being sliced by the thread ofย the screw, by simply holding the preset swivel: instead of the screwย and begin inserting it into the drywall with the screw gun.
The presetย depth screw device will also be used in application with a self-feedingย nail or screw gun, as used by professionals. This preset-depth nail device,ย as part of an application, can be used in a number of ways. For example,ย it will be made without the need to spin on the nail, and be moldedย in one piece, whereas the head is a flush fit for a finished product.ย These nails will come in a multi continuous stick for rapid fire, airย or electric gun, or a coil type application.
