Reliable and Sturdy Option

After trying this product, I am extremely satisfied with its performance. The screws are sturdy and the galvanized coat ensures the durability of the product. The grip is strong and made for a smooth installation process. This screw set is a great addition to my toolbox for both personal and industrial use. However, the packaging could be improved for easier identification and organization. Overall, this is an excellent option for those looking for reliable and sturdy screws within the…

Pros
  • Strong and durable due to galvanized steel construction
Cons
  • Only comes in one size, limiting versatility in certain applications

Best screws used here

The best screws I use for several reasons: Square shank sockets don't strip Screws don't come out from under heads Points don't sink quickly in wood Bits don't often go bad with these screws. These screws have small square pockets compared to other similar sized screws I've used recently, but they work well.

Pros
  • Wood screws
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks

The screw heads break off. Plywood 11/32 above.

Screw heads break off. Plywood 11/32 over standard 2x3. Building a wooden ramp/jump for bikes. Once the screw head reaches the plywood and I keep moving to get the screw head below the surface, the screw head breaks. Didn't have this problem with 2" stainless steel screws from the same company. Maybe I need a different screw head that allows for a slight countersink. Or do I need to drill a shallow hole first.

Pros
  • Industrial & Scientific
Cons
  • Thin
