Review on ⚙️ GripRite PTN312S1 Exterior Coarse 2" PrimeGuard Screw by William Rothstein

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good screws. The price was current on 10/12/2013.

In desert summers, we get a lot of hot, dry days followed by really cold nights. These temperature changes actually pull the nails out of anything exposed to the elements. "We have multiple decks, multiple long boardwalks and a house front that always had nails sticking out and then the wood warped. Then I have to drive nails in at least once a year. That must have been a real problem on the decks and walkways and we are tripped over them or suddenly stopped pushing the snow shovel. It was time to screw things up and there were times when my 2-1/2" and 3" bolts weren't long enough so I needed to add more 3-1/2" screws to the supply. A box of these was about $9 at home centers and Revain had them for about $7 plus free shipping, so I grabbed a couple boxes of deck boards before I spun them so they get 5 stars from me. But at the current price of just over $11 I wouldn't buy this again.

Pros
  • 3-1/2" #10 Horn Head, #2 Transverse Drive
Cons
  • No Automatic
