304 stainless steel deck screws for decking, fencing and timber construction. They hold fast in both hardwoods and softwoods - cedar, redwood, pressure-treated pine - and resist the rust streaking that carbon steel and coated screws leave down a board within a season.
The 3″ length suits thicker dimensional lumber, deck joists and structural connections, and carries more than enough corrosion resistance for decking, docks and jetties by lakes or rivers, including brackish water.
Note: Pre-drilling recommended for dense woods to avoid splitting.
Key Features
- 304 stainless steel resists rust and won’t stain your timber.

Step up to 316 marine grade for salt spray and coastal air, tidal or brackish water, pool and spa decks where chlorine is in play, or anything sitting permanently in or over water. For everything else - rain, snow, lakes, rivers and fresh water - 304 is the right grade and costs less.
