Key Features

• Sharp Point - enables fast, sure starts without predrilling, reducing installation time and effort on outdoor framing and connector projects.
• 1/4 in. Hex Head - reduces cam-out and helps prevent head stripping during installation, so fasteners seat cleanly even in repeated or high-volume applications.
• Black Double-Barrier Coating - provides a premium aesthetic finish that complements Outdoor Accents decorative hardware while delivering a medium level of corrosion protection suited to many outdoor applications.
• Optimized Heat Treating for Ductility and Strength - means the screw resists brittleness under load, offering more reliable performance in structural connector applications.
• Single-Fastener Load Capacity Exceeds a 0.148 in. x 3 in. (10d Common) Nail - gives builders and DIYers greater holding power per fastener, potentially reducing the total number of fasteners needed.
• #9 Screw Size, 2 1/2 in. Length - sized specifically for use with Outdoor Accents Essentials connectors, ensuring proper engagement depth and a consistent finished look.
• 50 Screws per Package with 1/4 in. Hex Drive Included - everything needed to get started arrives together, saving an extra trip to source a separate drive bit.
• Made in the United States - domestic production supports consistent quality standards for structural fastening applications.
