What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise these deck screws for exceptional holding power with composite and wood decking, noting they secure boards firmly without loosening over time. Many appreciate the color matching and flush, professional finish achieved through easy countersinking. The star drive design and small head create an invisible fastening system that enhances aesthetics. However, some users report screw head stripping or difficulty driving flush, particularly when pre-drilling, requiring careful torque control. A few mention the included driver bit wears quickly. Despite these challenges, most customers find the screws reliable and return to them for future projects.

#9 Not Good Deck Srews

Would Not Recommend

The #9 screws were not good. I used them to upgrade my deck from wood to Trex. I started regretting the choice of #9 screws (#9 & #10 screws recommended) after installing about 12 deck boards. Threads did not grip good in the old wood frame or the new treated 2x4's added to be 16" centers.

Garbage

Would Not Recommend

Like other reviews have said, these screws love to bore out your joist so the head of the screw is left sitting above your deck board. Tried several screws, tried pre-drilling, all failed at the same point. Utter garbage and Lowes won't take them back. Do yourself a favor and order a different brand from elsewhere.
