Product Overview:

Upgrade your decking projects with the ForgeFast TORX Compatible Decking Screws, engineered for high performance in both softwood and hardwood applications. These high-quality screws measure 5.0 x 100 mm and provide outstanding strength and reliability, ensuring your structures are durable.

Protected by a green Elementech 2000 surface treatment, these screws provide corrosion resistance up to 30 times longer than standard zinc-coated screws. This advanced coating ensures durability even in the most challenging outdoor environments.

You'll appreciate the deep TORX T25 compatible head, which reduces cam-out and allows for higher torque levels. This means a firmer drive with less effort, giving you more accuracy and efficiency in your work. The super sharp tip delivers immediate bite from the very first turn, making installation swift and effortless.

The patented self-drilling thread eliminates the need to pre-drill, reducing the risk of timber splitting—even when working close to the edge. Recessed under-head ribs provide excellent countersinking, resulting in a clean, professional finish every time.

These screws are designed to flex up to 35 degrees, which reduces the risk of shearing when used in materials that experience movement or flexing. The hardened case and core offer exceptional strength, while the impressive pull-out value reduces the risk of screws working loose due to seasonal changes or daily use.
