TRUFAST® Demonstrations Planned at JLC High Performance Zone
SPAX® Engineered Fasteners, part of Altenloh, Brinck & Co. US Inc., will showcase their latest innovations at the upcoming JLC LIVE Residential Construction Show, held March 26–28, 2026, at the Rhode Island Convention Center in Providence. JLC LIVE attendees are invited to the Altenloh, Brinck & Co. US Inc. booth #U1014 for a sneak peek at brand new SPAX products planned for release later this year.
In addition to SPAX, its sister brand, TRUFAST, will feature its wall products in live demonstrations at the High Performance Clinic, hosted by Big Dog Construction at booth #U601. Featured TRUFAST wall solutions will include Thermal Grip TubeSeal™ (GDTS-HL-2000 and GDTS-HL-4000), Pro Channel CI complete with fasteners and Thermal Grip IP50 insulation plates (2″ TGIP-2000 and 4″ TGIP-4000), which help secure exterior insulation and seal fastener penetrations in WRB and air barrier assemblies.
“JLC LIVE gives us the opportunity to preview what’s ahead for SPAX,” said Robert Knecht, Senior Marketing Manager for SPAX. “We’re highlighting PowerLags XF, PowerDrive and PowerTrim Black, all engineered for faster installation, best bit fit, improved driving performance and superior holding strength.”
SPAX’s new PowerLags XF® Structural Fasteners are designed for structural wood-to-wood applications and represent the next generation of SPAX structural performance. Featuring proprietary 4CUT™ technology and optimized thread design, they start fast, reduce splitting and drive with less torque for smoother installation.
PowerDrive™ Construction Screws are built for multi-material versatility across lumber, engineered wood and other common jobsite materials. Designed with SPAX’s 4CUT™ point, they provide faster starts, reduced wobble and smoother driving under high torque.
PowerTrim® Black Finishing Trim Screws complement dark-toned wood, composite and PVC trim boards and align with the continued trend toward black windows and trim. Engineered for both aesthetics and performance, they feature a 4CUT™ point for fast installation without pre-drilling, a specially designed head profile for a flush finish.
