FAQ
Why use stainless deck screws?
Pressure treated lumber eats away zinc coatings, and plain steel leaves black stains in cedar and redwood. Stainless screws won't rust or stain. Use 316 near salt water.
Square or star drive?
Both resist cam-out better than Phillips. Star (6-lobe) gives the best grip for long screws and power drivers; square drive is a long time favorite of deck builders.
Bugle head or trim head?
A bugle head is the standard deck screw head and seats flush without tearing the wood. A trim head is small, so it nearly disappears in trim and finish boards.
