Hillman Deck Plus Exterior Self-drilling Screws, Star Drive, Green Ceramic, 1-5/8-in. X #8, 5-lbs.

Hillman Deck Plus exterior screws are engineered for superior weather protection and long-term durability in outdoor decking and fence applications. These self-drilling screws feature a green ceramic coating that provides exceptional rust and corrosion resistance. Ideal for coastal or humid areas where moisture and salt spray pose a corrosion risk, these screws eliminate the need for pilot holes and deliver reliable fastening in pressure-treated lumber and outdoor wood projects.

The star drive design (also known as Torx) provides six contact points and is designed to reduce slippage and cam-out during installation. With a self-drilling point and coarse threads working together, you can drive these screws quickly without pre-drilling, saving time on the job. The green ceramic finish helps prevent staining on treated wood.
