FastenMaster Cortex System for Trex Fascia - 50 LF - Lava Rock

The Cortex Fascia Hidden Fastening System offers the strongest and most user-friendly solution for concealing fasteners in Trex Fascia Boards. Specifically designed for the expansion and contraction of fascia, the plugs used are crafted from Trex fascia board, ensuring a perfect color match. The system utilizes the TORX ttap Drive System, which is engineered to minimize strip-out risks, thanks to its patented stability button that keeps the fastener aligned during the entire installation process.

This comprehensive system comes in a kit covering 50 linear feet and includes various essential components: 100 screws measuring 1-3/4 inches, 105 matching plugs, one counterbore tool, and one setting tool. The screws in this kit are equipped with a #20 TORX ttap drive system, which greatly facilitates installation in a vertical position. The counterbore bit is designed to create an oversized pilot hole for the screw as well as a space for the plug, all at the ideal height for a seamless fit.

Made from Trex fascia boards, the Cortex fascia plugs provide an exact match in both color and texture, contributing to a polished and professional finished appearance. FastenMaster recommends utilizing three fasteners for every 18 inches on-center for 12-inch fascia boards, while for 8-inch fascia boards, two fasteners should be used at the same spacing.

For best results, it is advisable to consult the manufacturer’s installation instructions before beginning the process. The Cortex system effectively conceals the heads of fascia screws, resulting in a clean and attractive look for any project.

When you choose the Cortex Fascia Hidden Fastening System, you can be assured of a reliable and aesthetically pleasing installation, making it an ideal option for any fascia project. The combination of quality materials, thoughtful design, and ease of use ensures that you achieve the best results with minimal hassle.

To summarize, the Cortex system is the ultimate choice for anyone looking to install Trex Fascia Boards while maintaining a sleek and unobtrusive appearance. With every complete kit providing ample materials and the necessary tools, you can tackle your project with confidence, knowing that the strength and reliability of the fastening system are by your side.
