Collated Screws for Wood, Built for Speed on Site
Need faster fixing without compromising on strength? Explore our collection of 9 TIMCO collated screws for wood, designed to make professional fixing jobs quicker, cleaner and more efficient.
Choose from 4mm, 4.2mm and 4.5mm thread sizes, with lengths from 40mm to 70mm to suit a wide range of applications. Whether you're working with timber, flooring, drywall or decking, there’s a TIMCO fixing to match the job.
Why Collated Screws Save Time on Site
Loading screws one at a time slows you down. On a big job, that lost time adds up fast. Collated screws fix that problem. They come pre-loaded on plastic strips. Your auto-feed screw gun drives them one after another. No stopping to pick up each screw. No fumbling with a bucket on a cold morning.
This collection covers collated wood screws for four main jobs. You can fix timber flooring. You can fit decking boards. You can hang plasterboard. And you can fasten general woodwork quickly. All products are TIMCO collated screws. They are designed to feed cleanly through auto-feed attachments without jamming.

Four Types of Collated Screw in This Range
This collection has four product types. Each one is built for a specific job. Pick the right type for your task before you order.
Collated Solo Woodscrews
Five products in this type. These are general-purpose collated woodscrews. They have a double countersunk head with a zinc and yellow finish. Available in 4.2mm and 4.5mm diameters. Lengths run from 40mm to 70mm. Sold in packs of 500 or 1000. Good for fast timber fixing on site.
Collated Flooring Screws
One product in this type. The 4.2mm x 55mm flooring screw is built for subfloor boarding. It has a double countersunk head with a zinc and yellow finish. Sold in packs of 1000. It pulls tongue-and-groove chipboard down tight against the joist. Helps stop boards squeaking later.
Collated C2 Decking Screws
One product in this type. This is the 4.5mm x 65mm C2 Deck-Fix screw. It has a countersunk head with ribs and an exterior green organic finish. Sold in packs of 500. Built for outdoor timber decking. The C2 coating resists rust in exposed UK weather.
Classic Multi-Purpose Collated Woodscrews
Two products in this type. Both use A2 stainless steel. Sizes are 4.0mm x 40mm and 4.0mm x 50mm. Both have a double countersunk head. Sold in packs of 1000. Use these where rust resistance is needed. Good for damp areas or treated timber.
Two Material Options in This Collection
Material choice affects how long the screw lasts. It also affects where you can use it safely. This range has two materials.
Carbon Steel with Zinc & Yellow Finish
Seven products use carbon steel. This is the standard choice for indoor timber work. The zinc and yellow coating adds basic corrosion protection. It works well in dry areas and covered structures. This is the most common material for UK collated woodscrews. Available in 4.2mm and 4.5mm diameters.
A2-304 Stainless Steel
Two products use A2-304 austenitic stainless steel. This grade resists rust well. Use it where moisture is a concern. Both screws are 4.0mm diameter. Lengths are 40mm and 50mm. These are the stainless steel collated screws in the range. Good for damp indoor areas or treated timber.
Important: For outdoor decking, use the C2 green organic coated screw. It is designed for exposed UK conditions. The A2 stainless steel screws in this range are suited to damp internal areas. Always match the coating to your site and application.
Head Types in This Range
Two head types are in this collection. Both are countersunk. Each works differently depending on the job.
Double Countersunk
Seven products have a double countersunk head. This head type drives flush into the surface cleanly. The double countersunk shape reduces the chance of the head splitting timber. It is used on the Solo woodscrews, flooring screws, and stainless steel classic screws. Good for flooring, timber frames, and general woodwork.
Countersunk with Ribs
Two products have a countersunk head with ribs. The ribs sit under the head. They grip the surface as the screw seats. This stops the screw from spinning back out over time. This head type is used on the C2 decking screw and the 4.5mm Solo woodscrews. Good for decking and structural timber fixing.
Sizes and Lengths Available
Three thread sizes are in this range: 4mm, 4.2mm, and 4.5mm. Lengths go from 40mm to 70mm. Use the table below to match size to job.
| Size | Product Type | Material | Pack Size | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4.0 x 40mm | Classic Multi-Purpose Woodscrew | A2 Stainless Steel | 1000 | General timber, damp areas |
| 4.0 x 50mm | Classic Multi-Purpose Woodscrew | A2 Stainless Steel | 1000 | Thicker timber, damp areas |
| 4.2 x 40mm | Solo Woodscrew | Carbon Steel | 1000 | General timber fixing |
| 4.2 x 50mm | Solo Woodscrew | Carbon Steel | 1000 | General timber fixing |

| 4.5 x 60mm | Solo Woodscrew | Carbon Steel | 500 | Deeper timber fixing |
| 4.5 x 65mm | C2 Decking Screw | Carbon Steel (C2 Exterior) | 500 | Outdoor decking boards |
| 4.5 x 70mm | Solo Woodscrew | Carbon Steel | 500 | Deep structural timber |
How Collated Screws Work
Collated screws sit on a plastic strip. The strip holds each screw at the right angle. You load the strip into an auto-feed attachment. The attachment fits onto most standard screw guns.
As you press the nose against the surface, the tool feeds the next screw into position. You drive it in. Then the strip moves forward automatically. The next screw is ready. You do not need to stop between fixings.
This is much faster on high-volume jobs. Fitting a subfloor or a decking run is far quicker with collated screws. The strip also helps keep each screw straight. This reduces stripped heads and wonky fixings.
Quick tip: Always check your auto-feed attachment is set to the right depth. Drive too shallow and the head sits proud. Drive too deep and you risk splitting the board. A small test drive on scrap material before you start saves a lot of rework.
How to Choose the Right Collated Screw
Start with the job. Different tasks need different screw types. Using the wrong one can cause problems.
For Timber Flooring and Subfloors
Use the 4.2mm x 55mm collated flooring screw. It pulls tongue-and-groove chipboard tight to the joist. The double countersunk head sits flush. This stops the board edge lifting. Do not use a general woodscrew here. The flooring screw thread is designed for this specific job.
For Outdoor Timber Decking
Use the C2 Deck-Fix 4.5mm x 65mm decking screw. The green organic coating gives exterior protection. The ribbed countersunk head grips the decking board surface. This screw is built for outdoor use in UK weather. Do not use a zinc-plated indoor screw on exposed decking.
For General Timber Fixing
Use the Solo woodscrews in 4.2mm or 4.5mm. Pick the length based on the timber thickness. As a rule, the screw should go at least 25mm into the base timber beyond the top board. Use 40mm or 50mm for lighter framing. Use 60mm or 70mm for thicker sections.
For Damp Areas or Treated Timber
Use the A2 stainless steel classic multi-purpose screws. The 4.0mm x 40mm suits lighter work. The 4.0mm x 50mm suits slightly deeper fixing. These stainless steel collated screws will not rust. They will not react with preservative treatments in tanalised timber.
Collated Screws vs Loose Woodscrews
Collated screws are not always the right choice. Here is when to use each type.
| Situation | Best Choice | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Large flooring or decking run | Collated screws | Much faster. Auto-feed keeps pace with the job. |
| Single repair or small fix | Loose woodscrews | No need to load a strip for one or two fixings. |
| High-volume timber framing | Collated screws | Speeds up repetitive fixing. Less fatigue on long runs. |
| Awkward angles or tight spots | Loose woodscrews | Auto-feed attachments need clear access to the surface. |
| Outdoor decking in bulk | Collated C2 decking screws | Speed plus the right coating for outdoor use. |
Need loose woodscrews instead? See our woodscrews collection or our decking and timber screws range for non-collated options.
Pack Sizes in This Collection
Products come in either 500-piece or 1000-piece packs. Here is how they split.
500-Piece Packs
Three products come in 500-piece packs. These are the 4.5mm Solo woodscrews (60mm and 70mm) and the C2 Deck-Fix decking screw (65mm). Good for medium-sized jobs or when you want to try a size before ordering more.
1000-Piece Packs
Six products come in 1000-piece packs. These include the 4.2mm Solo woodscrews, the flooring screw, and the stainless steel classic screws. Better value for large runs. Use these when you know you have a big job coming up.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What are collated screws used for in timber work?
Collated screws are used for fast, high-volume fixing into timber. Common uses include subfloor chipboard, tongue-and-groove flooring, timber decking, and general structural woodwork. They feed automatically through an auto-feed screw gun attachment. This is much quicker than loading screws one at a time.
2. Can I use collated wood screws with any screw gun?
No. You need an auto-feed screw gun or an auto-feed attachment for your existing driver. Without the attachment, the plastic collation strip has nothing to feed through. TIMCO collated screws are designed for use with standard auto-feed attachments available for most drill drivers. Check your tool first before ordering.
3. What is the difference between the flooring screw and the Solo woodscrew?
The collated flooring screw is designed specifically for fixing tongue-and-groove chipboard or plywood to timber joists. Its thread pulls the board down tightly. The Solo woodscrew is a general-purpose collated wood screw. It is suitable for a wider range of timber fixing tasks but is not a direct replacement for a dedicated flooring screw on subfloor jobs.
4. Are the stainless steel collated screws suitable for outdoor use?
The A2 stainless steel classic woodscrews in this range are suited to damp internal areas and treated timber. For fully exposed outdoor decking, use the C2 Deck-Fix green organic coated screw instead. That product is rated for exterior use in UK weather conditions.
5. How many screws come in each pack?
Packs contain either 500 or 1000 pieces depending on the product. The C2 decking screw and the 4.5mm x 60mm and 4.5mm x 70mm Solo woodscrews come in 500-piece packs. All other products in this collection come in 1000-piece packs. All prices include VAT.
6. Can I use collated wood screws to fix plasterboard?
No. This collection covers collated screws for wood and timber only. Plasterboard needs a different screw type with a bugle or trumpet head profile. For plasterboard work, see our collated drywall screws collection instead.
7. What length collated screw do I need for chipboard flooring?
For standard 18mm or 22mm tongue-and-groove chipboard flooring, use a 55mm collated flooring screw. This gives enough length to pass through the board and bite at least 25mm into the joist below. For thicker or double-layer boards, go up to a 60mm or 65mm screw.
