Product Information

Full details

The Ecoscape Colour Coded Screws are ideal for professional contractors and DIY enthusiasts looking to achieve a seamless, high-quality finish on composite decking or cladding projects. These 40mm silver fasteners are specifically engineered to blend into your surface, providing both structural integrity and a refined aesthetic. One caveat to keep in mind is that they require a dedicated No.2 Square Bit for installation, which must be sourced separately if not already owned to ensure a secure fit and prevent damage to the screw head.

FAQs

Can I use a Phillips head bit with these screws?

No, these screws are specifically designed for a No.2 Square Bit to ensure optimal torque and prevent stripping.

Are these screws rust-proof?

They are designed for outdoor composite applications, though they should be kept away from harsh chemicals or direct saltwater exposure to maintain their finish.

Do I need to buy the bit separately?

Yes, if you do not already possess a No.2 Square Bit, we recommend adding one to your order.

Can I use these on natural timber decking?

These screws are specifically optimized for composite materials; while they may work in timber, their thread pitch is designed for the density of composite.

How many screws come in a pack?

Please refer to your specific product packaging or invoice, as pack sizes can vary based on project requirements.

Troubleshooting

Screw head is stripping

Ensure you are using a high-quality No.2 Square Bit and that the bit is fully inserted into the screw head before applying pressure.

Composite board cracking near the screw

Reduce drill torque and consider pilot drilling a small hole through the composite cap before driving the screw.

Screw not sitting flush

Check that the screw is driven at a 90-degree angle to the surface and that the joist below is not obstructed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Seamless, aesthetically pleasing finish
  • Tailored for composite decking and cladding
  • Durable construction for outdoor longevity
  • Reduces visible hardware on project surfaces

Cons

  • Requires a specific No.2 Square Bit for installation
  • Limited to silver color applications
  • Bit not included in the package

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal performance, ensure you are using a variable speed drill set to a low or medium torque setting. You must use a No.2 Square Bit; using a standard Phillips or flathead bit will likely strip the screw head and ruin the finish. When installing, drive the screw straight into the material to ensure the threads bite correctly. For care, keep the screws stored in their original packaging to prevent moisture exposure before use. Since these are intended for outdoor composite materials, they are naturally resistant to the elements, but we recommend pre-drilling the composite boards if you notice any signs of material stress during installation.
