Any time concrete comes in contact with water, it faces a life shortening processes. In cold climates, water that seeps into a drilled hole, can freeze and cause cracking. In warm climates, water inside a hole allows for mold to grow. Both situations can cause the screw to corrode, cracking, and ultimately premature failure of the structure.Most people assume that the screw itself forms a tight-impenetrable moisture barrier. The truth is, that without proper moisture protection, all concrete screws are subject to water damage. To correct for this issue, the best solution is to prevent water from entering altogether. Introducing Red Seal Concrete Moisture Barrier Protection Screws. Red Seal Concrete Screws are High Performance moisture barrier protection screws. They are the perfect solution for light duty concrete installation jobs such as installing electrical boxes, hose reels, or anywhere you are seeking to prolong the life of your concrete slab or structure. Each screw comes with a proprietary long-lasting silicon washer pre-installed that prevents moisture from entering. Use it in places where you want to keep moisture in or out. Each screw features the patented Stick-Tight drive system that allows for one-handed anti-wobble installation. The screw prevents moisture damage via "Angel Wings" and the patent-pending Red Seal washer system. Angel Wings under the head of the screw ensure that debris is cleared from the hole so that the Red Seal washer can create a tight moisture barrier. Installation is simple: 1. Use the included 3/16" bit to drill a pilot-hole. 2. Using the included driver bit (or a #2 Phillips or #2 Square Drive) install the screw. Installation is fast and simple and provides for a clean long-lasting installation that maximizes moisture protection and prolongs the life of your project!
