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.

#9 Not Good Deck Srews
Would Not RecommendThe #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 RecommendLike 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.
