What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise these screws for their strong holding power with composite decking materials like Trex and PVC, with color matching that blends seamlessly for a clean aesthetic. Most users report smooth installation, reliable durability over years of use, and the ability to countersink flush without surface puckering. Many appreciate the star-shaped heads that reduce stripping and allow unobtrusive fastening. However, some note the screw heads are delicate under high torque, and several report the included driver bit wears quickly or fails, requiring replacement for consistent results. Overall, reviewers consider these screws a strong choice for professional-looking composite deck installations.

Reverse threads may back out screw if predrilling

The Grip Rite website does say to predrill but in doing that about 10-20% of screws did not sink flush and often backed out while turning counter-clockwise due to the reverse threads at the top. Most of these then spin in the hole and don't back out at all. I had to turn them out with locking pliers and side cutters to replace with longer screws. I stopped pre...
