Hillman Fasteners 48414 Tan Ceramic Deck Screws 5 Lb

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 48414 is a 5-pound box of tan ceramic-coated exterior deck screws designed for outdoor decking applications. Each screw measures 2 inches in length and is sized at number 8, featuring a self-drilling cut point that eliminates the need for pre-drilling in most deck materials. The star drive head and coarse, serrated thread pattern provide strong pull-through resistance and secure fastening into wood decking. The ceramic coating delivers a 1500-hour salt spray rating, making these screws well-suited for humid, coastal, and wet outdoor environments. This listing includes a pack of 4 boxes, totaling 20 pounds of product.

These screws are intended for exterior wood deck construction and repair. The tan color blends with common pressure-treated and composite decking materials, reducing visible hardware on finished deck surfaces. The self-drilling point allows for faster installation on decking boards without a pilot hole in typical applications. They are appropriate for both new deck builds and replacement or repair work on existing structures, installed by carpenters, general contractors, and experienced DIYers working with exterior wood framing and decking materials.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a star drive bit matched to the screw head. Power down all nearby electrical circuits before working in areas where wiring may be present beneath decking. Follow local building codes for fastener spacing and deck construction requirements. Avoid overdriving screws, as this can compromise holding strength and damage decking board surfaces.
