What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise these screws for exceptional performance on composite and wood decking, highlighting strong holding power, clean self-countersinking heads, and a flush finish that blends seamlessly. The T20 star drive head engages easily and resists stripping, while sharp threads allow smooth insertion with minimal effort. Many appreciate the color match and durability across outdoor projects. Some note the included bit wears quickly and recommend purchasing a higher-quality alternative. A few report hole stripping if driven too quickly or with insufficient screw length. Overall, most customers find them reliable and professional-looking despite minor technique considerations.

Would RecommendI had trouble with the screws. The bit that comes with the screws wore out after about 10 screws. I had bought a second pack and that lasted longer. I decided to pre-drill the holes.

Not impressed with fancy screws
Would Not RecommendThese screws with their fancy threads don't always seat flush with the decking. They lose their grip going in and often don't drive flush or below the deck surface. You are left with a screwhead bump above the deck. Even if you reverse your driver to let the secondary thread pull the screw down, it doesn't drive flush with the deck surface.

Great for Mutilating Your Deck
Would Not RecommendWow. These screws completely SUCK! I’ve built more decks than I could possibly remember as a landscape pro and can say Grip Rite got this design completely wrong. Whether you predrill or not, they mutilate the composite decking and the wood joists underneath. And don’t even THINK about trying to remove one after it doesn’t seat below the surface. You’ll need a pick to pull the head up while reversing the drill. Absolute garbage fasteners! 🗑️🗑️🗑️
They drive in and then spin.
Would Not RecommendThese things are awful. Even with pre-drill they drive in to where the head meets the decking, and about 1 out of 8 just start spinning with the head still exposed above the board. $50 worth of screws are making a $2000 deck end up being sub par. I searched high and low to find any useful instructions and they basically provide nothing other than your basic how to drive a screw that is useful for a 5 year old. this company usually has good products but avoid these unless you want to ruin your pr...
