For optimal fastener performance, the screwgun should be a minimum of 6 amps and have an RPM range of 0-2500. (Maximum 1800 RPM is recommended for Teks 5 fasteners). </li> <li>Adjust the screwgun nosepiece to properly seat the fastener.</li> <li>New magnetic sockets must be correctly set before use.</li> <li> Remove chip build-up as needed. The fastener is fully seated when the head is flush with the work surface.</li> <li>Overdriving may result in torsional failure of the fastener or stripout of the substrate. </li> <li>The fastener must penetrate beyond the metal structure a minimum of 3 pitches of thread.</li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> </div></div>
