VERSATILE
Fasteners for
Any Project & purpose
BMD offers a range of fastener lines through QuickBuild Pro, ready for use in wood, cement, gypsum, and drywall applications.
QuickBuild Pro fasteners
Our fasteners endure rigorous testing to ensure a quality product.
We regularly put our fasteners through a battery of tests to ensure our screws can last under the harsh conditions of real-world project use. We implement the following tests for every QuickBuild Pro fastener product:
- Tension
- Profile
- Torque
- Bending
- Penetration Speed
- Cutting
- Grinding
- Mounting Press
- Hardness
- X-Ray
- Salt Spray

Fastener identification
Look for these icons for quick identification.
BMD carries a wide assortment of threaded fasteners to help you complete your project efficiently and correctly. We offer threaded fasteners in a variety of lengths, shank thicknesses, drive types, thread types & point types that are geared towards specific applications to help you accomplish your project quickly & effortlessly.
Drives
Phillips
The most common screw drive type. Phillips drives are designed to cam-out, preventing over-tightening.
Slotted
The first type of screw drive to be developed. Still commonly used in hand-driven applications where little torque is required.
Square
Also known as a Robertson or Scrulox drive, square drives are resistant to cam-out, allowing the screw to stay on the tool tip without the user needing to hold the fastener in place.
TORX ™ / STAR
Torx, also sometimes referred to as star drives, are designed to prevent cam-out and for high-torque applications. Greater torque can be applied to the fastener, allowing for over-tightening.
Socket
Has a 6-sided socket that is commonly driven by Allen wrenches or hex keys.
Hex
Turned by using the outside of the head rather than the inside. Usually driven by an appropriately sized socket.
Coatings
Phosphate
Chemical etching process using phosphate intended for interior use.
Zinc
Electroplating process using zinc intended for interior use.
Yellow Zinc
Electroplating process using yellow zinc intended for interior use.
RUSPERT®
Electroplating + coating process for superior corrosion resistance.
Exterior Grade
Pollutant-free ceramic coating for high corrosion applications. Ideal for use with treated lumber.
SKT®
Nanometer technology process for high corrosion applications. Ideal for use in ACQ treated lumber.
Points
Sharp
Sharp points are often found on threaded fasteners intended for use in soft wood, drywall, plywood, composite and light metals.
Self-Drill
Self-drill points have a drilling tip that eliminate the need for hole preparation. Self-drill points are often found on fasteners intended for harder surfaces such as cement boards or heavier gauge sheet metals.
Type-17
Type-17 points have a thread cutting point with a sharp tip. The fluted point helps to capture and remove chips when driving the fastener. Commonly used in wood and composite.
Wing-Tip
Wing-tip points are for use in fastening wood to metal applications. The wings ream a clearance hole in the wood but are designed to break off when coming in contact with metal. Also known as reamer points.
Threads
Coarse Thread
Coarse thread fasteners have fewer threads in a defined length with larger size threads relative to the shank diameter. Coarse thread fasteners drive faster and have greater holding power for softer woods such as pine and cedar.
Fine Thread
Fine thread fasteners have more threads in a defined length with smaller size threads relative to the shank diameter. Fine thread fasteners drive slower and are preferred for harder substrates such as into metal or hard woods like oak or cherry.
Exceeds All ASTM Requirements
QuickBuild Pro fasteners provide security in a fully tested fastener for job site use.
Deep Well-Formed Recess
Allows easy seating of the fastener and cam-out when at proper depth. Pushes drive torque through the screw for faster penetration and prevents wobbling.
Core Steel Strength
Tested to exceed industry standards which allows fasteners to maintain internal integrity.
Cutting Thread
Delivers smooth entry and allows fastener to cut through material quickly.
Threads
Designed for increased holding power.
Strong Coating
Increased corrosion resistance.
Sharp Point
Provides easy penetration into wood and light gauge metals.
Type-17 Point
Captures chips and helps penetrate quicker into harder woods.
Self-Drilling Point
Penetration into heavier gauge metals.
SECURE
Performs on the Jobsite every time
QuickBuild Pro is BMD’s line of high-quality threaded fasteners. QuickBuild Pro’s easy to use fasteners provide faster penetration, are made stronger, last longer and tested to meet or exceed industry standards.
Our vast selection of threaded fasteners allows you to select the proper fastener for your project. With multiple fasteners for exterior and interior wood, heavy and light gauge metal connections, we have a threaded fastener to meet your needs.

Testing & Certification for our products
Quickbuild Pro products are built to perform.
QuickBuild Pro threaded fasteners are manufactured via select mills starting with high-grade steel bars. The steel bars are then turned into 5.5 mm coils that are further “pulled” to exact diameters dependent on the type of fastener. The coils are then cut to length, headed, point formed, threaded and heated treated with quality control checks performed every step. QuickBuild Pro fasteners are fully tested after the coating process, and are given a final inspection during packaging.
