    316 marine grade stainless steel deck screws - the highest corrosion resistance of any common fastener material. This is the grade for salt spray and coastal air, tidal or brackish water, pool and spa decks where chlorine is in play, and anything sitting permanently in or over water. Our 304 grade may discolor over time, but will never corrode or stain on your deck either, and it costs less. Where salt and chlorine never let up, 316 is simply the better screw.

    Built for floating docks, jetties, boardwalks and seaside decking. The threadless upper shank pulls boards down tight and stops jacking, holding firmly in timber and composite decking alike, and works as an exterior wood screw for fencing, pergolas and outdoor furniture.

    At 2-1/2″ this is the general-purpose length for decking boards, fence rails and outdoor furniture in coastal conditions.

    Key Features

    • 316 marine grade stainless steel gives excellent resistance to rust, corrosion and staining.
    • Designed for use in coastal and saltwater environments.
    • Precision threads and point allow smooth installation with reduced splitting.
    • Flat head with nibs provides a clean, professional finish on every project.
    • Nibs under the head let it finish flush with no mushrooming.
    • Threadless upper shank pulls boards down tight and prevents jacking.

    Building inland, away from salt and chlorine? The 304 grade version does the same job for less.

    stainless screws

    "look like a good screw, haven't used them yet"

    David A. (4/5)

    Item Quality and Excellent Customer Service

    "The 316 marine grade fasteners are non-magnetic with good weight and craftsmanship. Unfortunately, I had a project spec. change and needed a different size that was unavailable. Elton provided excellent and responsive customer service from order to shipping to return. I would not hesitate to order again. Thanks Elton!"

    Wayne S. (5/5)

    Excellent Product

    "I have a salt water pool and I've had to replace my deck screws due to rust. I started using the marine grade 316 stainless steel screw a few years ago and they are amazing. Fast shipping and I love that they include a little prayer pamphlet and a carpenter pencil. These little extra touches go along way in my book. Thank you I've ordered the 1750 pack and 3 or 4 of you 300 and will definitely buy again."

    Beautiful Screws

    "The screws were exactly as described and were shipped quickly to the proper address."

    Great Driving Screw

    "This is the 1st time I’ve used Eagle Claw SS 316 screws. They are great to use. 1st I did check to see if they were 316 by using a magnet. Magnet does not work. They go in extremely fast on pressure treated pine decking! They look good and I feel they will last for years!"

    Roger H. (5/5)

    Perfect screws!

    "These screws worked great for raised beds. I predrilled holes with a countersink bit, but I doubt that was even necessary."

    John K. (5/5)

    I have been using these

    "I have been using these screws for years on the coast of NC. I have never had any problems except for a few snap offs every now and then when attaching new decking to older (denser) seasoned wood. You might want to predrill some. They don't strip, as long as your bit isn't too worn out, lol. They are true 316 grade, not coated. Keep in mind the 2. 5 inch big box is a 1500 count, same as 3 inch. It is not a 25 pound big box 2000 count. I love that they are US based, and made in Taiwan, NOT CHINA! I can't wait big boxes of 2 inch and 1. 5 inch for fence, and plywood application!"

    Installing new dock boards

    "We purchased these Eagle Claw #10 2 1/2” 316 marine grade stainless steel exterior wood screws to install new boards on our dock which goes out over brackish water of the Outer Banks of NC. They perform perfectly, not one stripped head, strong and durable! Shipping was fast— a bonus when trying to get a job done! I also appreciated the note and the free little gift included—a blessing! Thank you for your good quality and service!"
