Installation & Maintenance Tips

This installation information is a general guide only and may not address your specific site conditions. Always follow local building codes, safety practices, and professional methods. If you are not experienced with this type of work, hire a qualified contractor.

Installation
  1. Position Screw: Align #8 Rezist Hex Screw with Gutter component ensuring proper placement and angle.
  2. Engage magnetic driver: Use magnetic nut-setter or hex driver; magnetic shank prevents dropped Screws during installation.
  3. Drive without pre-drilling: Self-piercing tip eliminates need for pilot holes in aluminum Gutters and components.
  4. Achieve proper torque: Tall hex head drives efficiently; oversized washer provides superior bearing surface and pull-out resistance.
Maintenance
  1. Inspect periodically: Check Screw connections during routine Gutter maintenance for secure attachment and rust protection performance.
  2. Monitor coating condition: Verify Rezist coating continues providing rust protection especially in high-moisture or coastal environments.
  3. Replace if needed: Superior 1,000-hour protection significantly extends service life compared to standard fasteners.

Compare Styles & Materials

Rezist® Zinc Screws vs Standard Screws

  • Rezist® Screws: 1,000-hour rust protection, professional-grade coating, reduced callbacks, premium corrosion resistance.
  • Standard Screws: 24-48 hour rust protection, basic zinc plating, potential staining issues, frequent replacement needs.
#8 × ½" vs #10 × 1½" Hex Screws
  • #8 × ½" Screws: Non-load-bearing applications including Elbows, Downspout connections, component fastening, shorter length for thinner materials.
  • #10 × 1½" Screws: Load-bearing applications for hanging Gutters, attaching heavy-duty Hangers and Brackets, longer length and larger diameter for structural connections.

Best Choice: Use #8 Rezist® Hex Screws for non-load-bearing Gutter System connections like Elbows and Downspout attachments. Choose #10 × 1½" Screws for load-bearing applications such as hanging Gutters and securing heavy-duty hangers. Select 100-pack for smaller projects or trial applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

This is a general guide only and may not address your specific site conditions. If you are not experienced with this type of work, hire a qualified contractor.

How much longer do Rezist® Screws last compared to standard Screws?

Rezist® Screws provide 1,000-hour red-rust protection versus 24-48 hours for standard zinc-plated Screws - a 20-40x improvement. This dramatically reduces callbacks, prevents Gutter staining, and extends fastener life in outdoor applications.

Why are these Screws magnetic and self-piercing?

Magnetic Screws work with magnetic nut-setters preventing dropped fasteners during installation. Self-piercing tips eliminate pre-drilling through aluminum Gutter materials, significantly speeding installation while maintaining secure attachment.

What makes the hex head design better for installation?

The tall unslotted hex head drives faster with less tool wear, while the oversized washer increases bearing surface and pull-out resistance. This design combination reduces installation time and improves long-term holding power.

Can I get these Screws in custom colors?

Yes, Rezist® Hex Screws are available in all standard Gutter System colors for seamless color coordination. Custom colors can also be accommodated for special projects requiring specific color matching.

Do I need different Screws for aluminum vs steel components?

These #8 Rezist® Screws work effectively with both Aluminum Gutters and Steel Gutter Hangers. The self-piercing tip and true-size construction provide reliable fastening across different Gutter System materials.
