Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
Customers praise these screws for strong holding power, flush installation, and clean appearance on composite decking, with many noting the small head design and color match as key advantages. Most find them reliable and expect long-term durability compared to traditional fasteners. However, a notable group reports installation challenges, particularly with the included bit quality and countersinking consistency, with several recommending pre-drilling or purchasing a separate T20 bit. Some experience spinning or stripped heads, though technique and material density affect results. Despite these concerns, most customers consider them a solid value choice for composite decking projects.

Reverse threads may back out screw if predrilling
Would RecommendI'm no pro and was working with these and composite decking for the first time. I was attaching boards to both new and reused 2x6 joists. The Grip Rite website does say to predrill but in doing that about 10-20% of screws did not sink flush and often backed out while turning counter-clockwise due to the reverse threads at the top.
