Hi, excuse the subject line, i bought the QUICKSILVER® PRODRIVE®

which ones.

They used to do the Spax Torx drive screws. Twin thread, with
serrations on the last few threads. Superb screws. They stopped
doing them, so I now buy them from Axminster.

Once you try them, you will never use other screws.

I agree. Didn't know you could get them there...got my last lot from
B&Q!

Axminster do a bulk pack of Spax in a steel case plus three large
boxes of wall plugs as a pretty good deal.
