Timber Spikes

Our mission is to become Africa’s leading engineering company a place where talented people want to work and clients want to buy from.
How we deliver:

Timber spikes are specifically designed to fasten two or more wooden members together. They feature semi-cone pointed, thread-formed (fetter drive) threads that allow them to be driven directly into timber like a nail, significantly speeding up installation.

The head of a timber spike is large and low-profile, providing a wide bearing surface that prevents the spike from pulling into the wood. Fins or lugs at the base of the head bite into the timber to prevent rotation once installed. EBB also supplies timber bolts, which are manufactured with a national coarse thread for reliable performance in wood applications.

 

Manufacturing

EBB manufactures top-quality timber spikes in diameters ranging from 1/2″ to 1-1/2″, meeting most ASTM, AASHTO, and SAE specifications. We also accommodate special requests for custom heading styles, thread types, and finishes to meet specific project requirements.


Standard Thread Length

The minimum thread length shall be equal to half the nominal spike length plus 1/2″.
