Assembly
When assembling, impact screwdrivers are recommended. The concrete screw does not require a preload torque to ensure the fixing (such as e.g. wedge anchors) The final torque applied should not be larger than what is required to mount the detail. Avoid over-tightening. Further information of the installation is included in the ETA.
