You’ll be amazed at the difference an auger point makes on a Square Drive stainless steel screw! These auger point 305 stainless steel screws are great for use with pressure treated wood, or premium materials like Redwood and Western Red Cedar because they are truly self drilling. Passivated type 305 stainless steel provides even more corrosion resistance than the usual type 304 stainless steel (a bit of extra nickel really helps). Avoid any potential for splits: be sure to test or pre-drill when you install at the end of a board. Pilot holes may be required in some applications. Note the non-standard screw head diameters (.344). Made in Taiwan.

          Excellent product but your order form is less than user-friendly. If I look up the product number(s) I want to order, why not be able to enter those item numbers/quantity instead of searching through your listings?

              I used these on exterior porch tongue and groove flooring. They will never go away and will outlast the porch.

                I do a lot of woodworking and these are some
                of my most reliable pieces used. I can always
                count on them to hold fast, drill quickly and
                easy to use.

                  • Drive head strips easy

                  Best Uses

                    Comments about 8 x 2 Self-Drilling Wood Screws, Stainless Steel, Flat Head, Square Drive:

                    doesn't matter whether I have my drill/driver on low or high torque setting. as the screw bites deep and the square drive bit pops out a little the screw head is dead...easily striped. then I can't even back it out unless I use a vise grip pliers.
