Itw Buildex 560154 6 Bugle Head Phillips Deck Screw 500pk

Product Description

The ITW BUILDEX 560154 is a 6 bugle head Phillips drive steel deck screw designed for fastening decking material to wood framing. Manufactured from Grade C-1018 steel, this screw features a bugle head profile that countersinks smoothly without tearing surface material. The overall length is 1-5/8 inches, making it well suited for attaching nominal deck boards to standard framing lumber. Each package contains 500 screws. Licensed contractors, carpenters, and deck installers reach for this fastener in residential and light commercial decking applications where consistent drive performance and thread engagement are required.

This deck screw is used in wood-to-wood fastening applications, primarily for installing deck boards over wood joists. The Number 2 Phillips drive reduces cam-out during installation when used with a properly fitted bit. The 6 thread size and 1-5/8 inch length are commonly specified for thinner decking profiles and composite underlayment applications. Sold in a 500-count package to support production-volume decking work.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters and deck contractors using a drill-driver fitted with a Number 2 Phillips bit. Pre-drilling is recommended in hardwood or dense composite decking to prevent splitting and reduce drive torque. Follow applicable building codes for fastener spacing and edge-distance requirements when securing deck boards to framing members.
