At the \u003cstrong\u003eDIY Hardware Store\u003c\/strong\u003e, our decking screws range covers the coated and stainless steel screws used for fixing softwood and hardwood deck boards to their supporting joists and frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStandard zinc-plated screws corrode rapidly in outdoor conditions; decking screws use a green polymer or hot-dip galvanised coating, or are made from stainless steel (the correct choice for hardwood decking, where tannins can accelerate corrosion in lesser finishes). A sharp, self-drilling point and a bugle head that sits flush without tearing the timber surface are equally important.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreen coated and hot-dip galvanised for softwood decking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel for hardwood and composite decking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBugle head sits flush without tearing timber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelf-drilling point for clean entry without pre-drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResists corrosion and staining caused by timber tannins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in standard deck board lengths and gauges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"decking-screws","title":"Decking Screws (Sold as singles)","description":"\u003cp\u003eSecure your outdoor decking projects with our robust decking screws, designed for superior holding power and weather resistance.
