Metal goods

Equipping a workshop, carrying out construction work or simple home repairs are unthinkable without quality connecting material that ensures the strength and stability of all structures. The term screw goods includes a wide range of elements intended for joining wood, metal, concrete, plasterboard and plastic.

If you need all kinds of screws, nuts and accessories in retail or wholesale, on this page you can find a list of the best equipped hardware stores and screw shops in Belgrade.

Basic categories and purpose of connecting material

For working with wood, self-tapping screws with a sharp tip and deep thread are used, while for metal structures, machine screws with a metric thread and self-drilling screws with a drill tip are used. When mounting in concrete, brick or hollow blocks, dowels in combination with suitable screws are indispensable, as well as heavy steel anchors for heavy loads. The entire range is accompanied by appropriate nuts (hexagonal, safety, blind) and washers (flat, elastic, wide) that evenly distribute pressure on the surface and prevent self-unscrewing.

Materials, protection and quality standards

The durability of the joint primarily depends on the conditions in which it is located and exposure to humidity and chemicals.

For interior work in dry rooms, galvanized screw products are most often used, which provide basic protection against rust. On the other hand, for exterior works, building constructions and applications in conditions of high humidity, it is necessary to use prochromic stainless steel elements (A2 and A4 standards) or elements with hot-dip galvanizing.

Guide for the correct selection of screws and accompanying equipment

When purchasing connecting material, always precisely define the base in which you are mounting and the expected load. When installing in plasterboard, use only special screws with a fine or coarse thread and spiral dowels intended for plaster, so that the material does not crack. Pay attention to the profile of the head (cross, torx, hexagon, hexagon) and use the appropriate screwdriver bits (bits) to prevent slipping and damage to the screw head. If you are working on external structures, avoid ordinary black or unprotected screws, because under the influence of rain they will quickly rust and weaken the whole joint.
