FAQ

Are these safe for pressure treated lumber?
Yes. The coating is made for ACQ pressure treated lumber, which corrodes plain or zinc plated screws.

What length deck screw should I use?
For 1 in. (5/4) deck boards, 2-1/2" #10 screws are common. For 2x boards use 3" or longer. The screw should go at least 1-1/2 in. into the joist.
