Questions & Answers

How many square feet will a 10 pound bucket of 2 1/2 inch deck screws cover
Asked by Gbaker September 2, 20201
AnswerIf you are using PG MAX Stainless Steel Screws there are 68 screws per pound, one pound installs approximately 19 square feet, five pounds installs approximately 97 square feet, and ten pounds should install just under 200 feet. This is when driven 2 fasteners per joist, 16" on center, on 6" wide decking; allow for some waste and loss during installation when estimating required quantities.
What is the head diameter of this screw?
Asked by BB September 1, 20201
Answer8.5mm-9.0mm (.335”-.354”)
R these screws good for nailing down new deck planks
Asked by Dee August 4, 20201
AnswerYes. For optimal performance of the deck boards it is best to pre-drill the screw holes, even though these screws can be screwed in directly.
What grade of stainless?
Asked by Al July 6, 20201

If holes were pre drilled would these work to attach a board to a concrete wall?
Asked by keyseasy April 30, 20201
AnswerNot very well. There are different types of purpose specific to concrete fasteners.
Do I need to pre-drill all holes in decking for these, or just the ones next to the edges?
Asked by cbdoug77 September 7, 20194
AnswersWe haven't found a need for predrilling in any position.

The product should be sealed with something that shows it’s been opened. Edison NJ must have a thief because I bought a 1lb. & when I was home weighed it on a scale that showed just under a pound in the container. I counted 60 total. Everywhere I look it people claimed anywhere from 68 to 65.

High quality SS screw with star-shaped drive bit. I put in more than 100 screw for my cedar deck boards. All of them went in like going into butter. Nice and smooth with not a single bad one! Not sure about the bad reviews mentioning broken screw. Maybe they got a bad batch? or they were used for very hard wood?
The head is large and it will hold wood nicely. However, some countersunk hole will prevent some small cracking around the head when it was driven totally flush with the board.

I used these screws to install P.T. 2" x 6" lumber on a dock. All structural connections were made with SS lags or galvanized through bolts and then I used these screws to secure the deck boards. These screws were hard enough not to twist into a corkscrew in hard driving applications, but not so hard that they would easily snap off. The torx drive is far superior to the square drive at preventing stripped heads when sinking the screws. All screws were driven with battery powered impact guns with zero failures or problems. Now if you could just make them stick to my fingers a little better so that I wouldn't drop them in the water they would be perfect!!!

Used both 3 in. and 2 1/2 in. Stainless Steel on my under deck ceiling install at the shore.
They worked well with ease of installation and no rusting in salt air. Previously I used them also on the composite decking and was very happy with the performance. No screw stripping out the heads.

Worked like a champ. It made it a lot easier to rebuild my 30 year old redwood deck. Bit was included in each package I purchased. I used 25 pounds of these screws and had only 2 screw heads strip out.

Shouldn't rust, but requires pilot holes
I just screwed in 27 of these, and I did not have a drill bit long enough to make a pilot hole the entire length of the screw. While screwing in 3 of these, the heads broke off.
I recommend using stainless 305, 304, or 316 screws instead of e.g. another popular coated deck screw, but be sure you drill pilot holes first because these aren't the toughest screws around.
It would be great if Home Depot sold these in decking colors, but alas just regular stainless.
