What Customers Are Saying
Most customers praise these screws for their color match and seamless compatibility with composite decking, delivering a clean, professional finish. However, a substantial minority report significant head stripping issues during installation, even with predrilling, with some experiencing failure rates of 10–20% per batch. Many note predrilling is essential despite product claims otherwise. Several users found that switching to an impact gun resolved stripping problems, suggesting tool dependency. While aesthetics and design intent satisfy the majority, installation reliability concerns affect a notable portion of users, creating a divided customer experience.

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.

Minor design flaw?
Its a screw but when using them I felt that it created too much vinyl garbage at the top of the screw which frequently prevented it from seating properly. This is generated by the reverse threads intended to prevent mushrooming. Perhaps the pitch on that portion of the screw could be improved. In any case there were a number of times when the screw would not seat and I was forced to back the screw out to remove the glob of melted plastic from the top of the screw and then put the screw back i...

heads strip before even half way in
Do not buy these if you don't want to spend hours fighting them. I tried multiple bits and drill/drivers and even pre-dilling but no luck. about 1 in 3 would strip out. Finally gave up and bought different screws which went in without issues.
