Hillman Fasteners 48628 Ss Exterior Screws 3in No10 5lb

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 48628 is a 5-pound box of No. 10 by 3-inch stainless steel exterior screws engineered for demanding outdoor fastening applications. These Power Pro screws feature a self-drilling point that eliminates the need for pre-drilling in most applications, saving time on the job site. The Star Borefast thread pattern drives fast and seats cleanly, while a knurled shank section reduces material splitting during installation. Stainless steel construction resists corrosion in exposed exterior conditions. This box contains a package quantity of 4 units and carries a lifetime warranty from the manufacturer.

These screws are suited for exterior wood fastening tasks including decking, fencing, siding, and structural trim work in residential and light commercial construction. The self-drilling tip and Borefast thread make them practical for use in composite and pressure-treated lumber without pre-drilling. Licensed contractors, carpenters, and experienced DIYers working on exterior assemblies will find this fastener a reliable choice for high-moisture and weather-exposed installations.

Installation Notes

Install with a power driver fitted with the appropriate star bit to match the drive recess. Power down or unplug tools before changing bits or clearing jams. When fastening near board edges, maintain adequate edge distance to reduce splitting risk even with the knurled shank design. Follow applicable building codes for fastener spacing and corrosion resistance requirements in exterior assemblies.
