What Customers Are Saying
The deck screws received mixed reviews. Many found them to be good quality and suitable for outdoor projects, praising their color match, low profile, and secure hold. However, a significant number of customers reported major issues, with the screw heads stripping or breaking easily, even when pre-drilling pilot holes. This made the screws difficult to install, especially in composite or treated wood, and some had to replace a large number of stripped screws. The quality and performance of these screws appears to be inconsistent, with a sizable portion of customers having a poor experience.

Great screws
Do not drive like T25 head screws
Screws heads stripped out very easily. Had to drill hole before screws. T 20 bits wore out very quickly, after started using new bit every 10-15 screws didn’t have as much trouble.

Perfect product for the home project we did.
Dark gray deck screws
Would RecommendBought these screws to install composite deck boards. Worked fine. Color of the screws was darker than I expected.
Good Deck Screw with One Flaw
Would RecommendThese are good deck screws for composite decks. The thread pattern allows the screws to drive through the deck boards and below the deck board surface. Two things led me to give four stars instead of five stars. First, pilot holes are needed (unless you want to spend a lot of time trying to get the screw to "bite." Two, about one percent of the screws had their heads break when driving deep into the boards - especially when backing out screws. Overall, I recommend these screws.

Strips too easily
Would Not RecommendNever dealt with a screw this unreliable. You can pre-drill holes all day and you’ll still end up stripping the screw 6 out of 10 times. Use anything but this!!!

Just what I needed to finish a project.
Would RecommendNot as good as described. Very aggravating.
Would Not RecommendAbout 20% of them did not drill into the composite boards at all and many would not back out after going only halfway in and spinning in place.

Almost Always Strips
Would Not RecommendThe color matches the decking (Trex Foggy Wharf) sufficiently. They appear to be well coated. Don't try to drive these without pre drilling. The WILL strip out. A total waste of time. I have never had deck screws that were allegedly designed for composite lumber strip out. The description says that you don't have to pre drill; good luck. I thought that the bit included was junk but my own T20 bits did the same. Do not buy these to save time; you will most certainly need to pre drill. I c...
