The innovative distinction between screw spikes and traditional dog spikes lies in their shaft design. The surface of screw spikes features helical grooves similar to screw threads, but with deeper patterns and wider spacing. This design allows them to be driven into the ground or base materials through rotation or hammering, forming a stronger integration with the surrounding material and providing enhanced pull-out resistance.
Screw spikes are typically made of high-strength steel, with surfaces treated for rust prevention (such as galvanization or coatings) to adapt to outdoor humid or rainy environments. Their length and diameter can be customized based on practical requirements, with common specifications ranging from tens of millimeters to several hundred millimeters.
