The Simpson Deck-Drive DSV Wood Screw (Collated), #10 x 2 in., Red, 1,500-Quantity is a purpose-built fastening solution from Simpson engineered for preservative-treated decking applications and exterior wood construction. Curved-collated for use with the Simpson Strong-Tie Quik Drive auto-feed screw driving system, these screws combine a high-low threaded point for fast starts, a variable thread design optimized for dimensional lumber, and a rimmed flat head with under-head nibs that countersinks cleanly into today's wood deck boards. The shank is engineered to withstand the swelling and shrinkage common with fast-growth lumber, making the DSV a reliable choice for deck boards, fascia, trim, fencing, and other exterior wood fastening applications.

Key Features

• Low-torque threads - reduce driving effort and fatigue during high-volume deck installations, keeping work moving efficiently.
• Rimmed flat head with nibs design - the under-head nibs allow the head to countersink easily into wood, delivering a clean, finished appearance without pre-drilling.
• High-low threaded point - provides fast, self-starting penetration into wood deck boards, eliminating the need for pilot holes and speeding up installation.
• Variable thread design optimized for dimensional lumber - threads are engineered to grip fast-growth wood effectively and resist the loosening that can result from seasonal swelling and shrinkage.
• Quik Guard coating - provides corrosion resistance for exterior and certain preservative-treated wood applications, meeting AC257 exposure conditions 1 and 3 performance requirements.
• T25 6-lobe drive - offers positive bit engagement, reducing cam-out and maintaining drive accuracy even at the high speeds of an auto-feed system.
• Curved-collated strip format - compatible with the Simpson Strong-Tie Quik Drive PRO200SG2, PRO250G2, PRO300SG2, and Project Pro auto-feed screw driving systems for continuous, high-speed fastening on large projects.

Why This Product

• Built specifically for wood decking conditions - the variable thread design and engineered shank address the real-world challenges of fast-growth lumber, including seasonal movement that can cause standard screws to loosen or fail over time.
• Corrosion resistance backed by tested performance standards - the Quik Guard coating meets AC257 exposure conditions 1 and 3, giving contractors and homeowners confidence that these screws are suitable for exterior and preservative-treated wood applications without relying on guesswork.
• Collated format turns large installations into manageable work - curved-strip collation designed for compatible Quik Drive auto-feed systems eliminates repeated manual loading, making it practical to fasten full deck boards, fascia runs, and fencing sections at a consistent pace.
• Clean results with no extra finishing steps - the rimmed flat head with nibs countersinks flush and leaves a neat surface, so deck boards look professional without requiring additional work to hide fastener heads.
