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.

Grip-Rite Primeguard plus #9x3-in. Green Screws

Bathroom Renovation
Would RecommendI used these screws when I remodeled my master bedroom bath. I ripped out the ceiling, floor, and all of the drywall, including one stud wall. I had to rebuild my floor joists, and a stud wall and sister every wall and the ceiling in the bathroom...all with these screws. Not a problem. One recommendation. Buy an impact driver....they work so much better than a drill for driving these 3 inch screws. Both are highly recommended. The good: Start Drive. Won't slip. Resistant to water. Didn't break...

I am remodeling a 113 year old barn into a house. Project has been on-going for the past 5 years. One more year to go. There are no nails in the barn, only the original ones. All remodeling has been done using these screws. The bits and replacement bits need to be hardened, as they wear out quickly.

I've used the 3" deck screw for all my decking needs, and used the 3.5" screws for a lot of my framing.
