Deck Plus 48844 Exterior White, Wood Screws, Steel, Self-Drilling, (#10 x 2.5"), 1 lb

Ok, so these coated deck screws have made life a bit easier for me. I have been repairing some recent storm damage to my 6' high privacy fence around my back yard. The 4"x 4" existing treated wood fence posts have become rock hard being exposed to years of our Florida sun. I was thinking that both replacing and adding additional fasteners would be a difficult job, even using my impact driver. But the self drilling point of these wood screws had no problem seating into the hard posts. Because the fence boards themselves have a light colored, paint wash surface, the white protective coating of these screws blended in perfectly. In addition the, the protective coating will not cause the screw heads to discolor like galvanized coatings, in contact with some types of treated wood. The package contains a T25 Star Drive bit. I have just about stopped using Philips Drive screws, particularly in applications where the wood is very hard. Star drive screws practically eliminate the problem of stripped screw heads.

My Hubby uses these type of fasteners EVERYWHERE. So we are extremely familiar with them. These are great quality and the included bit is helpful if aren't using them often. The white coloring is great for most applications, but could be highly visible in others. Overall we are 100% satisfied
