Would RecommendI got these deck screws to do some deck maintenance at my house. They seem to be seem to be pretty good. I wasn't sure since they are fairly thin, but the heads didn't snap off when I was driving them, so I think they're decently made. I really like the driver bit that was included with them, it's nice and long. Again, I was surprised at how thin the driver bit is, but I didn't have any problem with it. I will say, the box that these came in was a bit hard to open. That could be an issue si...
Very strong composite deck screw
Would RecommendThe #10 2 1/2" Composite Deck "Hideaway" screw is an epoxy coated carbon steel screw made especially for composite decking such as TREX, but may be used on any brand of composite decking. The 2 1/2' length insures that the screw will reach deep enough into the composite material to hold the deck boards securely. The screw kit comes with 2 "Hexstix" bits which fit the "star" tip of the screw perfectly. You cannot use a Phillips or flat screwdriver with these screws. The Hexstix bit nserts into ...

Great Decking Screws w/drivers
Would RecommendThe TREX Hideaway Composite 2 ½ Deck Screws install and look great. This TREX screw package comes with two Hexstix bits to enable you to install these screws in the TREX decking with ease. The screws have special threads to keep the deck screws from backing out and allowing your deck boards to become lose over time. The screws are easy to install, hold the decking in place, and match the TREX decking color very well.

Awesome hold
Would RecommendUsed these on a 8x12 deck. These are to date the best deck screws I've used. They grip and hold, the T20 head are awesome. The bit that's included lasted for over 200 screws and still looks new. Cant go wrong with them
Hello, We can’t thank you enough for your kind review!

Outstanding composite deck screws
Would RecommendIf you are installing composite decking, I recommend using these composite deck screws. The screws are color matched to Trex decking but will match similar oolored decking well. I had success pre-drilling with 1/8" bit. No issues with the decking mushrooming. The head of the screw should be driven flush to the surrounding deck. A little practice before using on your deck and you'll be able to use these easily. The box comes with one matched driver for the screws. I don't know the name/size ...

Great screws with new technologies built in
Would RecommendReally like these screws, once they are in, they stay flush and do not make a big dent since the heads are smaller than most deck screws I use. I noticed the top end is opposite of lower end, making it stay and not move once it is screwed in. Good idea. The self-penetrating tip makes it easier to start screwing without big damage to area.

Good Deck Screws
Would RecommendMy Deck was constructed in October 2016. The composite deck board used for the skirt on steps was separating from stringer. When I removed the deck board, I found that the contractor used short deck screws, and the screws had pulled out of the stringer. For repairs, I used Trex #10 x 2-1/2-in Composite Deck Screws. The screws were in a sturdy plastic container and came with 2 bits. The lid of the container is secured and requires you to tear off the security strip to open. The screws came in a ...

Great
Would RecommendGreat for my decking and fence. They are easy to use with the pointed screw that bites into the wood. Not a slip in either one by fours or larger. Easy to bury the head and will not back out.

The BEST
Would RecommendI have played around with a lot of different options for composite decking and they all have their own problems! But not these screws these ARE the solution, they have a starbit that come with the box and not just one of those cheap ones that I always just toss out because i don’t want to lose the magnetic bit in the middle of my job! I like what this comes with an actual hex head driver and this a quality one too. Thea screw will drive flush and you can hardly even see them! They are super stro...

Best Deck Screws
Would RecommendThese screws are the best, in that they have dual threads for extra holding power. Drive nicely and keep the material down and secure. Love them and they work well on straight wood too.

Deck Screws for composite deck
Would RecommendGreat deck screws to secure composite decking. Makes fastening your decking a breeze. Effortlessly screws through your composite decking for a tight fit. Epoxy coating color matches all Trex colors and are rust resistant. These are virtually invisible in the decking when secured correctly. You may want to have a few back up driver bits in case the ones included begin to get worn.. Also note the warranty matches the warranty on Trex Transcend, Select and Enhance lines of decking.

Hold you tightly
Would RecommendThis is a great product, the threads have a good depth so they bite hard for a good hold. The color blends in well with boards for a solid looking finish. It comes with a bit so you are ready to go with your drill right out of the box. I liked how smooth they went in, and pulled my project tight.

GREAT SCREWS
Would RecommendBy the time these screws arrived I was done with my composite project so I begin to look for other uses. I love to make wood crafts and I have been looking for a screw where the head is not as visible and blends in with the wood. This screw solved that. The torques head made stripping a thing of the past. Once it was planted into the pine board you could hardly see it because the head was so small and the color is perfect. These effortlessly went through pressure treated pine. These will b...

Smart Design & Sturdy
Would RecommendVery sturdy screws. Do not like that you have to have a special tool to use them, however, it is more effective and less time consuming and is more stable than regular Phillips head. Convenient that the tool is included.

Perfect for Composite
Would RecommendThese screws were perfectly for composite decking. Used in conjunction with the rest of the Hideaway system makes life so much easier and definitely makes the finished product that much cleaner and appealing to the eye. If your putting in a composite deck dont look any further! I didnt have any screws strip out which i have had woth other brands. They also start very easy and with the countersink bit that is supplied you wont over tighten them into the composite material. Packing was also very n...

Trex makes it simple and perfect
Would RecommendThe Trex hideaway hidden fastener system composite plug screws are awesome, they bite down on the wood and provide a good solid hold on your boards. The whole system with the counterbore bet and the plugs is definitely the way to go. It provides a hidden fastening system that's not complicated. I'm using a 5/4 X6 in broad and I felt like the two and a 2.5 in screw was a bit long really only need a 1.75 in to a 2-in screw, but that's a minor thing weather installing fascia board or attaching the ...

System is just ok. There are better ones available
Would Not RecommendThe Trex Composite Plug Screws are part of a hidden fastener system. They require the Enhance Decking Tool Kit for installation. The counterbore tool is used to predrill the deck board, then a plug screw is used to secure the board to the deck framing, then the decking plug is tapped into the hole, making a virtually invisible attachment. Compared to other hidden fastener systems on the market, the Trex system has an extra step of drilling with a special bit prior to installing the screw and plu...
