Fixings

This range of fixings is exclusive to Millboard and it ensures a beautiful finish every time

Durafix®

Millboard’s decking and cladding systems are complemented by the unique Durafix screws. 

Durafix fixings can be used in two ways – through the face of the boards or through the side of the boards. DuoFix provides a quick and easy fixing solution, leaving a clean, hidden-fixing finish. When fixing through the face of the boards, there’s no need to pre-drill, countersink or use clip fixings. Once the screws have been applied, the innovative Lastane coating on the board flexes back over the screw heads, leaving a minimal witness mark.

Made from A2 stainless steel, the screws have a self-cutting tip, six-point torx head and are waxed for ease of use. Each box of Durafix® fixings also includes a T15 hex shank drill bit. You will need around 22 fixings for each length of Millboard decking for residential applications and 26 fixings for commercial applications.
