Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure a professional installation, you must have a No.2 Square Bit on hand. Before driving the screws, it is recommended to test the depth on a scrap piece of composite material to avoid over-driving the head. While these screws are treated for outdoor use, regular inspection of your deck or cladding is recommended. In coastal or highly saline environments, check periodically for any signs of corrosion. Always pilot-drill when working near the ends of boards to prevent cracking, especially in colder temperatures when composite boards may be more brittle.
