What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise these screws for exceptional quality, durability, and reliable performance. Most highlight smooth driving into cement board and wood without pre-drilling, excellent holding power, and flush countersinking without splitting. The included star bit and self-tapping design receive strong appreciation for preventing stripping and improving torque transfer. Many commend the epoxy coating for superior corrosion resistance in moisture-prone areas. Some report difficulty getting screws started or bit seating issues, and a few prefer competing brands, but these concerns are far outweighed by widespread satisfaction and strong recommendations.

Bad screws

Would Not Recommend

The small star drive is not deep enough to hold the screw. I'm a long time pro carpenter and still had a lot of trouble with these screws. I finally gave up and hammered them in.

The screws didn't get a firm bite and spun.

I bought a box to try them out. I used up what I had left from Backer-On, then started using the power pro. The power pro screws did not lock into the subfloor like the others, and just spun. Therefore I don't have any confidence in laying tile on that area until I scatter a few more screws in from the other brand.

I really appreciate the star-drive heads on these screws...eliminates the possibility of stripping them out. Perfect for hangin cement board in wet/dry applications.
