November 1st, 2022 — BRYAN, Ohio — Builders and contractors now have a new fastening solution with the launch of SPAX® composite deck screws, the latest addition to the family of SPAX® Engineered Fasteners and the SPAX® Deck Solution Center category of products.
“We know deck and outdoor living spaces continue to be a priority for our customers and end-users,” said Robert Yates, SPAX® Associate Product Manager. “Whether using traditional wood or low-maintenance composite decking, builders now have more SPAX® fastener options – and colors - to get the job done right.”
SPAX® composite deck screws are engineered with an undercut head to prevent mushrooming and provide a clean finish into PVC, capstock and composite deck boards.

- Reverse upper thread clears away excess material
- T20 T-star drive for positive bit engagement
- Ideal fastener length for use with 1” and 2” nominal thickness boards
- Type 17 double slash point for a fast start and to prevent splitting
- HCR® coating that is IRC/IBC code compliant for use in treated lumber and exterior exposure condition 3 (general construction)
