Hillman Fasteners 967790 Bronze Exterior Screws 3in No.10 1200ct

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 967790 is a 1200-count bucket of Power Pro Bronze Ceramic exterior screws designed for demanding outdoor fastening applications. Each screw measures 3 inches in length and is sized No. 10 in diameter. The ceramic bronze coating is engineered to withstand 2000 hours of salt spray testing, making it well suited for coastal and high-moisture environments. The self-drilling point eliminates the need for a pilot hole in most applications, and the Star drive recess provides positive bit engagement and reduced cam-out. Licensed contractors, finish carpenters, deck builders, and exterior trim installers are the primary users of this fastener.

These screws are intended for exterior wood applications including deck construction, fence installation, trim work, and general outdoor structural fastening. The Borefast thread pattern is engineered to pull mating surfaces together quickly and securely. The knurled shank section below the head helps prevent wood splitting at the fastener zone, which is especially useful when working near board edges or in dry-season lumber. The bulk 1200-count bucket format suits production-volume work on larger exterior projects.

Key Features

• Self-drilling point eliminates pilot hole requirements in most softwood and composite applications
• Star drive recess reduces cam-out and improves torque transfer
• Borefast thread design pulls surfaces tight and speeds installation
• Knurled shank section reduces wood splitting near fastener head
• 1200-count bulk bucket format suited for high-volume exterior projects

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style exterior wood screw for use in deck, fence, trim, and general outdoor construction applications where a corrosion-resistant bronze ceramic coated fastener is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a star-tip driver bit matched to the drive size stamped or listed on the bucket label. Always confirm the substrate material and thickness before relying on the self-drilling point alone, as dense hardwoods or treated lumber over a certain density may still benefit from a pilot hole near board edges. Follow applicable building codes for fastener spacing and penetration depth in structural deck and fence applications. Store unused fasteners in a dry location to maintain coating integrity.
