What Customers Are Saying
The Grip-Rite deck screws are praised for their durability, ease of use, and strong grip, especially when used with an impact driver. The star-shaped drive head is noted as superior to the traditional Phillips head, as it prevents stripping and allows for more torque. The screws are reported to work well for a variety of outdoor projects, and the corrosion-resistant coating helps them withstand the elements. However, some customers experienced issues with the screws not countersinking properly in pressure-treated lumber, and a few reported rusting over time.

Would Not RecommendThought these screws were better quality than they are. The threads aren’t normal & most of them failed to screw down completely, let alone countersink, leaving the screw heads about 1/8” above the surface of the wood before they just spin. The picture on the website doesn’t accurately depict the screw threads either. I will be returning them.

This screw works great. Newer style isn’t any good in my opinion. Had to search for this style.

Grip-Rite Primeguard 3-in Polymer Deck Screw
Would RecommendGrip-Rite Primeguard Plus #9 x 3-in Polymer Deck Screws (5-lbs) box gripped tight and drew down well into substrate. Star head DeWalt bit used in conjunction with screw allowed for quick and easy install. Bit release from screw was minimal to aide in quick and accurate install of planking material.
