Product Description
This is a fixing, not a camera part — but every CCTV installer's van kit needs a reliable wood screw for backing boards, battens and enclosures. The TIMCO Solo 5.0x40mm Wood Screws PZ2 are a multi-purpose screw for timber, chipboard and other wood-based materials.
Key specs
- Size: 5.0 × 40mm (diameter × length)
- Head: Countersunk, sits flush with the surface once driven in
- Drive: PZ2 Pozi — gives strong driver engagement and reduces cam-out with manual or powered drivers
- Finish: Yellow zinc plated steel, giving corrosion resistance suited to interior environments
- Thread: Designed to hold well in timber fibres and engineered wood
Where they're used
These are general fixing screws for carpentry, joinery and construction work — fixing timber boards, assembling wooden structures and installing fixtures. The 40mm length gives medium-depth reach, useful where a thicker, stronger screw is needed than a shorter fixing would provide.
What to check before buying
Confirm the 5.0 × 40mm size and PZ2 drive match the screws already in your kit, and that the material you're fixing into is timber or chipboard — the yellow zinc finish is suited to interior use rather than anything exposed to the weather.

What materials are these screws designed for?
They are designed for timber, chipboard and other wood-based materials, commonly used in carpentry, joinery and general construction.
Why does the countersunk head matter?
It allows the screw head to sit flush with the surface of the material once installed, giving a neat, level finish.
