Product Description
Simpson #8 x 1 3/4 Brown 01 Composite Fascia Screws in Type 316 Stainless Steel are purpose-built fasteners designed for secure, professional-grade attachment of composite and PVC fascia boards in exterior applications. Engineered with a low-profile pancake head and a Type-17 point, these screws deliver clean, efficient installations on Trex fascia boards while standing up to harsh weather and moisture exposure through the severe-level corrosion resistance of Type 316 stainless steel.
Key Features
- Approved for attachment of Trex Fascia Boards - provides a code-compliant fastening solution purpose-matched to Trex composite fascia installations, removing guesswork from product selection
- Deep T-20 6-lobe recess for reduced cam-outs - keeps the driver bit firmly engaged during installation, minimizing slippage and protecting both the screw head and the fascia board surface (driver bit BIT20T-2-RC3 included)
- Type-17 point for fast starts - cuts into material quickly without pre-drilling, speeding up the installation process and reducing installer effort
- Low-profile pancake head resists pullover - the wide, flat head distributes load across the surface, helping the fascia board stay firmly secured while leaving a clean, finished appearance
- Type 316 stainless steel construction provides severe-level corrosion resistance - makes these screws well-suited for exterior environments exposed to moisture, salt air, and demanding weather conditions over the long term
- Brown 01 head color - blends with the fascia board surface for a discreet, professional finish that keeps the focus on the completed installation
Why This Product
- Trex-approved for composite fascia work - these Simpson fasteners carry specific approval for Trex fascia board attachment, giving contractors and DIYers confidence that the screw meets manufacturer requirements for that application
- Severe-level corrosion resistance built in - Type 316 stainless steel goes beyond standard stainless grades, making these screws a reliable long-term choice for exterior fascia exposed to moisture and harsh outdoor conditions
- Engineered to prevent installation headaches - the combination of the T-20 6-lobe drive for reduced cam-out and the Type-17 tip for fast starts means fewer stripped heads, cleaner drives, and a faster overall workflow
- Everything needed for driving is included - each pack comes with the matching T-20 6-lobe driver bit, so installers can get to work immediately without sourcing additional accessories
