Woodscrews For Timber
Rhino Multi-Purpose Screws for Timber and Board Materials
Rhino Multi-Purpose Screws are general-purpose woodscrews for timber, chipboard, particle board and MDF.
They are made from hardened C1022 steel and use a Pozi drive, deep single thread and double countersunk head. The yellow zinc-plated finish identifies this family within the Rhino range. It does not apply to every Rhino screw.
Main applications:
- Timber fixing
- Chipboard
- Particle board
- MDF
- Other approved general fixing tasks
Use in PVC-u, sheet metal or masonry with an appropriate wall plug depends on the job, substrate, loading and installation method.
Thread and size guidance
Most listed sizes may be fully threaded, but selected longer sizes are part threaded. Check the live product listing for the diameter, length, thread coverage, drive size and pack quantity supplied under each product code.
Before selecting this screw
The yellow zinc-plated finish must not be presented as suitable for marine, coastal or prolonged wet exposure without approved technical evidence.
Important application limit
These screws must not be treated as structural anchors, heavy-duty anchors or approved fixings for safety-critical, façade or overhead loads. Exact screw dimensions and pack contents must be checked against the live product code. Drilling depth, embedment, edge distance, spacing and installation torque must follow approved product documentation when available.
Concrete Screws For Light-Duty
Rhino Concrete Frame Screws for Light-Duty Through-Fixing
Rhino Concrete Frame Screws are intended mainly for light-duty direct fixing through window and door frames into a drilled substrate. The reviewed range uses a High-Low thread and requires a 6mm drilled hole. Reviewed promotional material identifies a T30 Torx drive and a zinc and yellow-passivated finish.

Drywall Screws for Metal Framing
Rhino Fine-Thread Drywall Screws for Metal Framing
Rhino Drywall Screws are intended for fixing plasterboard or drywall mainly to light-gauge metal framing in dry internal applications.
The reviewed products use a fine thread, Phillips drive, bugle head and black phosphate finish. The bugle head is formed for plasterboard fixing, while the fine thread is positioned mainly for metal framing rather than timber battens.
Where they should be used:
- Dry internal plasterboard installation
- Drywall fixed to compatible light-gauge metal framing
- Applications covered by the chosen product and system guidance
Use in PVC-u, sheet metal or masonry with an appropriate wall plug depends on the job, substrate, loading and installation method.
Where they should not be promoted
Do not use or specify black phosphate Rhino Drywall Screws for external, wet or permanently damp settings. Do not imply fire-system approval, corrosion classification or compliance with a named drywall standard until supporting documents have been approved.
Do Rhino Decking Screws remove the need for pre-drilling?
Not in every application. Pre-drilling may still be needed for hardwood, dense timber, board edges and other settings where splitting or fixing damage is more likely. The correct screw length depends on the board thickness, joist, timber density and required embedment. Check timber compatibility and approved installation guidance before starting work.
Material clarification
Rhino Organic Green Decking Screws are coated carbon steel. They must not be described as stainless steel or promoted for marine or coastal use without supporting technical evidence.
Decking Screws for Timber
Rhino Organic Green Decking Screws for Exterior Timber
Rhino Decking Screws are coated carbon-steel screws intended for exterior timber and decking applications where the product, timber and exposure conditions are compatible.
