Screws Deals & Offers

haha you make more effort than me, mine just lay wherever they land inside the case!! 😁

Saves a pound over the similar AGPTek kit https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07C3MLZGQ

My ssds are taped against the case... They are solid state after all.

Sorry, it was actually £5.99. I must have lost track on the pricing so yeah my mistake there. I added this item on wishlist last monday and was scrolling through the lighting deal, this appear on screen so bought it straight away. (y) I always wondering if Amazon secretly been putting people's wishlist on lighting deals. :/

Bought this during a lighting deal last tueday. Cost me like 2.99 or something. EDITED: Sorry it is 5.99 as posted.

Inboxed you thanks

I have a £10 off £100 code needs to be used by end of 15th - PM me if you want it

Any one want to send me there 10 off 100 Need a new drill and don't seem to have receive anything from screwfix

That's good know!.. thanks for sharing!.

Nope I used my dad's code on my husband's account. All good

Just to confirm - these support ALL thicknesses of plasterboard! 12.5mm & 15mm. They have an adjustable core.

As a handyman I use these quite a lot and they are very good. Great deal thanks.

Just to help out confusing info, red and yellow are screw fitted, brown and blue bolt fitted, drill your hole insert plug, get correct screwdriver and push the plug, the plug will expand in length from 9.5mm to 15mm long that will fit all plasterboard thickness with cavity behind it then turn your screw/ bolt to open wings and reduce plug to correct thickness. If plasterboard is dot and dab ( stuck to brick wall), over-boarded, insulated, flush on top of other object you will need the undercutter tool to shave off the back of the plasterboard to allow the wings to open.

Dot n dab walls just use frame fixings...they work a treat for heavy items like tv brackets etc.

Tried these on a plasterboard wall with a skim on top - the fixing just squashed and broke as it couldn’t penetrate the wall. So what are people fixing to bare plasterboard in a house? I can’t see an application for these, at least for myself.

Bought these today, seem to be good quality and the organiser box they come in would probably cost you a fiver or so.

How good are these screws?

My dad did this. Into a pile of sawdust. Yep. Never been the same again (excited)

You say that, but I find the idea strangely compelling :/

Thanks! Was looking to get some more screws and Aldi stuff is very good for me (DIY enthusiast) light to medium user of tools.

It's hard for the screwer

I've had a few of those. I feel like a kid sticking a few of each thing in there. When I come to open the bag, Why is it that the one size screw I need 4 of, I can only find 3 in the bag. I do it every time lol.

+1. (y)

Nut screws washer and bolts?

Can get much bigger (pick and mix) bags in Wilko for £1.50 and choose your own screws, bolts, nuts, washers etc from a big range

Pound? Have some heat. Some places like B&Q would charge more than a pound for a plastic container. Will get some of these as plenty stocked in this area's Homebases.

cool got two.. wanted that organiser case too thanks

And if your on a budget........ https://www.homebase.co.uk/homebase-handy-hardware-chipboard-screws_p299889

Thanks OP Looks mostly small sizes Ok if you need them. Once or twice a Year Lidl do an assortment of different sized ones mostly alot bigger than this for about £3 I had a look in B&Q and reckoned it would cost about £11 to match the quantity and sizes. Grab them while they are cheap.

For a pound, who cares!!

I think Screwfix sell the box for about £7. There's a larger box too at a tenner, and the compartments are interchangeable. That said, I've found the compartments on these particular ones are slightly taller than in the Screwfix ones, so they need taking down a bit for a good fit in the other boxes. But I've got four this size and four large ones and just swap them about as required.

I've been buying turbogolds when they are cheap, so have good stocks of the more obscure sizes. I don't need to use them often, I'm a data monkey not a chippy, but lately I'm doing a lot of hardware jobs in my 'spare' time and these are really getting my attention. At present I only have 60/80/100mm but I find I always reach for these over the TGs when I need that length, I'm going to get a few of these just for the variety. Didn't realise on my phone that these are removable compartments too, the box must be worth a fiver easy.

They're brilliant. I don't know why I didn't change to these years ago. I thought I'd try a pack and realised I was going for them all the time, rather than pozi's, so that was it. Luckily my pozi stocks were running down anyway so it wasn't a great sacrifice.

You know what, I never realised how much difference the different head makes. It really does though, a lot less slipping even at obscure angles

Yes these are very good, they also don't fall off your screw driver as well.

The few I got to use were great, but I'm passive aggressive fighting with a 75 year old that wants to put nails in everything! Not yet sure if I prefer them to the turbogold, the T20 (or was it T25?) heads seem a better driver and my drill seems to drive them better than PZ2s. I certainly won't rule them out in future, but I need to use them a bit more first. I found some screws with teeth in the bottom 5mm of thread that really work well in slatboard, but no idea where I got them! Must find out as they countersunk really well.

Had a go? Any good?

I'm also looking for a good screw, but will these do? Further info of the pack size below: (strong)

I've missed a good screw for a while since I've had sciatica.

Ahhh! For one minute I thought you were in with a pitch for Grand Designs lol.

Couldn't believe how much I got into the large bag and realised I could have got a bit more in if I'd perfected my shaking technique. Bag seems like 1-2kg in weight. Put in the large items then filled the gaps with small screws. Only just managed to seal the bag. Felt I cheated myself when after walking to the till a pocket of space appeared at the top of the bag. Only about 6 items are in the bag that I actually need at this moment in time, another 600 probably for future use.

Good deal but regular price. Larger bag is much better value. When you get home you can sit down for a couple of evenings and sort out your 'mixed' buy into the different sizes again! ;)

I bought a whole bag of these about two years ago, and haven't used a single one.

As a table top war gamer, 400+ 25mm metal bases (25mm Washers) for £2.99 is a bargain. Just be careful if you really fill the bag. A friend packed it as full as he could. All was fine, until the cashier dropped the bag and the seam gave.

stop screwing around!!

I went today to have a look around and saw these. It did say £1 on the clearance lable but when i went to the till they scanned at 50p. And don’t forget 15% off until 31st December on everything at homebase

I paid more than that for one.

Don’t forget to use the random number generator facility (or “stock checker” as the like to call it on the website) to ensure disappointment on arriving at store.

Reminds me of Thailand many years ago.

these were instore at my local B&M but price checked them and they are still full price. so presumably not national?

I can't seem to post a picture but the barcode is 1000030995405 Item code: 30995

Hi, what is the barcode number for this please, so can try and match it up in store

good find op, heat added

go to B&M and get screwed, utter twaddle!

Anyone know how these compare to the Philips hue, especially the new brighter colours? I have an Echo, and looking to get some smart bulbs - can go for Philips or Hive, as don't have any of the gear yet. These do seem cheaper.

Colour changing/dimming included.

​Ok, does that include colour changing/dimming or just basic on/off? Thanks

Up until about a week ago they weren't but Hive have updated and they work fine with Alexa now ,good price ,heat ..

Why would you want one of these I have a hive ?

hot as hell, some classics there. first vol was more gothic, these are more 'creeping horror' that i much prefer.

Thank You Roll On Vol 3 :D

Goes well with volume 1 ! Cheers Boz.

Top man, Boz.

Thank you Boz. I missed your deal on Vol.1 but have just bought that too well worth the 99p.

good find op, heat added

oh, and if anyone is after a k5, amazonm warehouse might have the other one I sent back, without the extension wings and screw guide. I saw the first one pop up used so ordered but it came without the extension wings, and I sent the first one back, then saw the 2nd one and thought I'd email Kreg tools, or just make my own wings or just screw it to a board. but Kreg emailed saying they would send me the missing parts for free as they didn't sell them as spares. if you email Kreg tools asking if you can buy these parts separately, they should email back saying they can provide them - for free! that means you can pretty much get the complete kit for 81.80 instead of 97.95. Mine cost 78 pounds something so was slightly cheaper, but there is still one going if anyone else is interested in getting one.

You're welcome :)

Thanks for taking the time

Good things come to those who wait :P

11 photos, 7 posts and no sign of the 12p screws until the 7th photo/5th post. The suspense was killing me. :D
