What is the drive type, and does a bit come included?

This screw uses a T20 6-lobe drive, which reduces driver-bit cam-outs for easier installations and longer bit life. A T20 6-lobe driver bit is included with the purchase. If a replacement bit is needed, the replacement bit model is BIT20T-2-R2.

Is this screw suitable for outdoor use?

Yes. The TSV214R70WH01 features a white exterior-grade coating that provides medium-level corrosion resistance, making it well-suited for outdoor applications. The white finish is specifically designed to blend with popular white PVC trim boards used in exterior installations.

What materials is the TSV214R70WH01 designed to fasten?

This screw is specifically engineered for installing exterior PVC trim and fascia onto wood substrates. Its triple-thread design allows for low-torque driving and increased holding power, while the box-shaped cutter head is purpose-built to bore cleanly through PVC materials.
