Solid Wire Grounding Hex Head Screw, Green (Pack of 100)

Product Information

Accurate site surveys, ground testing and load testing should be carried out to help choose the right screws for your project. This doesn't seem right to me although I feel that if the fixture has a surge of some kind, it WILL go through the grounding wires as they are connected right now so it SEEMS like it would be safe, but I must be missing something here. Load-Bearing Capacity: High-quality ground screw foundations have strong load-bearing capacities, comparable to traditional concrete foundations. I took a brief look in the code book during lunch and also noted that they also cannot be used for any other purpose if they are intended to ground the box. With our recent economic boom and the amount of homes that came up, I won't be surprised when I hear a 1/4 of them burned down.

The great benefit of using the Ground Screw is that it removes the need to concrete sockets into the ground and gives you the flexibility to move your cage or goal without the hassle of using traditional sockets. As long as the light fixture grounding wire is attached to ground, the light fixture itself is safe. They attached the fixture grounding wire directly to the grounding wire coming out of the wall (with a wire nut) and didn't bother with the screw at all.

Run of the mill TEK screws (self drilling/self tapping) have a tough time getting through stainless steel. Professional Installation: Due to the complexities involved, professional installation is recommended to ensure the foundations are installed correctly and safely. I just seem to feel that an additional screw for the fixture wire would be more effective, I would be worried those clips could come loose. If you are a garden room company, a house builder, renewable energy company, a local joiner, or another type of business that could benefit from collaborating with us, contact us, and lets see how we can help each other.

As for drilling and tapping, do you know of any 10-32's that are self tapping and just need to drill a pilot hole so you can avoid pulling out the tap/die set? The cost of a screw depends on which one you choose, and how many you need, depending on your projects requirements. Environmental Impact: Screws are less invasive and have a lower environmental impact compared to concrete foundations, as they don’t require extensive digging or soil displacement.As it turns out the little screw that bonded the 2 ground bars together rusted from years of moisture.

This ground screw is ideal for providing a solid base for garden sheds, smaller summer house and smaller structures.The reason this is in place, is due to the product either being double insulated, or using a low voltage power supply. The overall weight of your project and the ground conditions determine how deep a ground screw needs to be installed. Our range of screws not only work better than other types of foundations, they are faster to install, more eco-friendly, and deliver a more cost-effective solution.

We believe in our products and back the structural integrity of every screw with a 35-year guarantee based on typical soil conditions.

It is perfect for applications where extra load-bearing capacity is required or the site is on steeper sloping ground. No Water Usage: Concrete piers require water for mixing concrete, whereas our foundations do not, reducing water usage.
