Product Description
Deck screws are perfect for outdoor use because they're composed of 305 or 316 Stainless Steel for superior corrosion resistance in harsh environments to prevent rust and deterioration, which is particularly important in a wet, salt water environment. These screws have truss head, countersunk, flare or bugle shaped heads.
305 Grade Stainless Steel deck screws possess exceptional tensile strength and can effectively fasten deck boards to a timber support structure, providing structural stability. These screws have a sleek and polished appearance that will not rust and stain the wood, enhancing the overall visual appeal of your decking project.
The increased nickel content in 316 Stainless Steel contributes to its improved corrosion resistance compared to 305. As such, 316 SS is recommended for use in coastal regions where there is an increased salt content, or in areas where there are higher levels of pollution or corrosive chemicals, particularly chloride.
