TENZ low energy screws 17 March 2017

Wood is a pure, living and sustainable material, which is why TENZ has introduced a revolutionary thread design for use in wood – TENZ Stairs Thread Technology®. The new technology will be available on TENZ low energy screws across Europe later this year. 


Compared with conventional thread designs – TENZ Stairs Technology reduces friction along the thread and significantly minimises the screw-in torque. Therefore the capacity of the electric screwdriver is used more efficiently. Diminished friction along the thread also means considerably reduced thermal load on the components of the application tool and therefore an extension in tool and battery life. The revolutionary thread technology leads to reduced energy needs. So it is possible to drive in more screws than before when using a cordless screwdriver.
The TENZ Stairs creates a unique dynamic oscillating screw-in motion with a significantly reduced screw-in torque. This benefits the users as lower forces acting on wrists will make easy application of the TENZ screw and an increase in motivation and safety.
“Thanks to the revolutionary thread design wood fibres are gently displaced. Thus the wood fibres are neither drilled nor milled and remain intact unlike with conventional screws,” mentions TENZ. “A patent application has also been filed in over 50 countries worldwide.”
