Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Combination of narrow shank and deep coarse threads insures good holding power. Built-in washer screw head secures cedar and redwood joints like a champ.

The coated are perfect for exterior work! They work as expected! These are good quality screws - commonly used for decking applications or other thicker wood applications - not suited for furniture or most indoor applications.

The seller includes a nice 6 inch long square head hex bit (standard 1/4 inch hex drive) that fits these precisely. The screw head has a square receiver and a long drill compatible square driver is provided with the screws.



Cons

This product came completely spilled out in the bag. Poor shipping on amazon’s part, and flimsy designing of the case.

Quality


The combination of narrow shank and deep coarse threads insures good holding power.


The self-drilling tip works great and helps the work go a little quicker.

The blue finish is scratched through here and there, and this paint shouldn't be mistaken for a true weather-proof coating.

Price


#8 washer head square drive coarse thread wood screws is a good value and i recommend it!


They worked good value for the money


Reasonable price point to order instead of go to a big box store just for screws.

Packaging/appearance


Much more affordable and they came nicely packaged in a re-closable plastic container with a long-bit driver.

Competitiveness


Gave these a shot because i figured they couldn't be any worse than kreg brand.


I've only used a small handful so far but they seem to be at least as good as other branded pocket screws.


I can't compare these screws to others as others have done, but they work well and do the job.

    I wasn’t sure how sturdy these screws would be so i tested them by driving them into a solid block of maple

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    All too often the kregs have big blobs of coating in the head so a fair amount of them are useless


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I have been through several packs of these and have yet to have that problem


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    They are virtually indistinguishable from the kreg versions that were also used in the build


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Hopefully the coating will stand up to the outdoor use but time will tell


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Its been a couple weeks and they havent loosened or made any rust streaks yet
