Review on Deck Screws Grindy 200Pack 3 3LBS by Sean Davis

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Too many broken clasps for my taste.

URL: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08X26TWK6 Price at time of inquiry: $29.99 Brand: Grindy Poor quality. It only took me twenty or thirty straight out of the box. Of these, I had already completely unscrewed five heads halfway through insertion. This is not a quality product. Also, they weren't all in the same place. This may indicate a thread in the tools. However, the fact that they are all twisted in different places suggests that the weakness is in the alloy, not the tool. Cheap. Poor. Pros: Most of them made it through without incident. Cons: A large percentage of them (above the limit) broke too easily. This is despite the fact that I drilled pilot holes before inserting. If they don't do well with a pilot hole, what to do with raw wood (that's how decks are made). A 3 inch fastener works great for fences and patios, but when every fourth or fifth fastener breaks I don't feel comfortable throwing that kind of money away. I will not.

Pros
  • IMPROVED DESIGN. Our stainless steel wood screws are specifically designed for wood with sharp threads, a 17" cutting edge, lugs under the head and a star drive for ease of use. This screw set comes with an included TX25A bit for best results.
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
