FAQs

Can these screws be used on composite decking?

Yes, but always check your composite manufacturer's specifications regarding fastener type, as some require specific threading.

How many screws are included in the tub?

Each tub contains 1100 screws.

Are these screws suitable for saltwater environments?

While the coating is corrosion-resistant, high-salinity environments may require stainless steel fasteners for long-term use.

Do I need a special driver bit?

Yes, these require a Pozi drive bit for the best fit and to prevent damage to the screw head.

Will the green coating rub off?

The coating is designed to be durable, but using the correct drive bit will help prevent scratching or removal of the protective layer.

Troubleshooting

Screw head is stripping during installation

Ensure you are using the correct size Pozi bit and check that your drill speed is set to a lower torque setting.

Timber is splitting near the edge

Drill a small pilot hole prior to driving the screw to relieve pressure on the wood fibers.

Screw is difficult to drive in

Verify that your drill battery is fully charged and consider applying a small amount of lubricant to the screw thread.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High corrosion resistance for outdoor durability
  • Large 1100-screw count is ideal for bulk projects
  • Countersunk head ensures a flush, snag-free finish
  • Easy to drive into most common decking timbers

Cons

  • Requires a specific Pozi drive bit for best results
  • Color may not match all timber types
  • Not intended for heavy-duty metal-to-metal connections

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, use a standard power drill or impact driver equipped with a correctly sized Pozi drive bit. It is recommended to pilot hole the timber if you are working near the edge of a board to prevent splitting, particularly with denser hardwoods. When storing, ensure the tub is kept in a dry, cool environment to maintain the integrity of the protective coating. Periodically check your deck after extreme weather events; while these screws are designed for durability, regular maintenance ensures the timber remains tight and secure.
