Features

  • TYPE F SELF-TAPPING POINT - cuts machine threads directly into steel crossmembers up to 1/4" thick; drill a pilot hole, drive with an impact, no nut and no pre-tapping
  • FLUSH COUNTERSUNK FLAT HEAD - nibs under the head cut a clean countersink in hardwood and softwood decking, so nothing catches a boot, a strap or a skid
  • STAR DRIVE, NO CAM-OUT - deep six-lobe recess takes full impact-driver torque without stripping; far more re-drives than any Phillips deck screw survives
  • REMOVABLE, SERVICEABLE JOINT - machine threads in the steel survive board replacement; back the screw out, drop a new board, drive the same screw home
  • SPECS (1/4"-20 x 2-1/2") - T-30 star drive, 7/32" pilot in steel (Type F chart max: #1 / 0.228"); suits 2" nominal boards over steel frames; black phosphate Type F thread cutting screws, made for trailer deck and floorboard replacement

Description

Upgrade your trailer decking with our premium trailer decking screws, made from high-strength steel with a black phosphate finish for superior durability. Featuring a flat countersunk head, these screws sit flush for a clean and professional look. The Type F thread-cutting point allows for secure installation into wood-to-metal applications, making them ideal for trailer floors, truck beds, and utility trailers. Engineered for heavy-duty performance! Perfect for securing plywood trailer decking, flatbeds, cargo trailers, and more, these screws offer maximum holding power to keep your trailer floor secure for the long haul. Unmatched Strength: Engineered for heavy-duty performance, these high-quality screws deliver superior holding power, ensuring your floors stay secure even in high-traffic environments. Precision Thread Cutting: The Type F point cuts clean, precise threads into wood, reducing splitting and providing a rock-solid grip without pre-drilling in most applications. Plywood Trailer Decking: Securing plywood or composite decking to trailer frames, ensuring a durable, flat surface for transporting heavy loads. Flatbeds and Cargo Trailers: Fastening decking materials to flatbed trucks or utility trailers, providing a stable platform that resists loosening under vibration and dynamic loads. A Type F point is a thread-cutting screw designed specifically for wood-to-metal and metal-to-metal applications. Unlike self-drilling screws that have a drill tip, Type F screws require a pre-drilled hole before installation. Once inserted, the cutting edges of the screw create their own threads as they engage with the material. The cutting edges on the tip allow the screw to form threads in thin metal, aluminum, and steel structures. Ideal for attaching wood planks to metal trailer frames or similar wood-to-metal fastening applications. Since these screws cut their own threads, they provide a tighter grip and more secure fastening than traditional screws. Prevents loosening over time, making them ideal for trailer decking, where vibration and movement are common.

  • Strong screws at a great Price I would buy them again.
Item Package Quantity: 1 Size: 1/4-20 x 2 1/4 inch
These bits worked great for replace it the wood boards for my Car Trailer. The went in easy { I pilot drilled the holes} and even with he thin metal crooks members the design of the screws had lots of pulling power with out stripping out on the thin metal. I was so surprised how well they held I could have drilled the screw all the way thought the 2” pressure treated wood. I had no fallers which made for a quick replacement of all the boards for my 16” car Trailer. Well worth the money. The Trox heads worked great no slippage of the drill when driving them in nor did a single one show any sign of ware like a Phillips head or straight slot screw head. ... show more

  • None broke

  • What a great Screw
Item Package Quantity: 1 Size: 1/4-20 x 1 3/4 inch
These self-tapping screws are very nice; I used them to attach wood decking to a steel structure and found them to work great. Just drill the pilot hole, which is a #7 bit and drive the screw home, it works very well. I used two different drills, one for the pilot hole and one to drive the screws, worked great. ... show more

  • Finally, a true 1\4-20 self tapping screw
Item Package Quantity: 1 Size: 1/4-20 x 2 1/4 inch
Excellent screws. I did not buy them to use as deck screws, but to use the self tapping feature. Occasionally I find myself needing a tap, or needing to chase some threads. Carrying a 1\4" - 20 tap is a pain. My original thought was to buy some 1\4"- 20 self drilling screws. The screw would drill and tap the hole by just using my impact driver. Then I could remove the self tapping screw and insert a regular 1\4" bolt thus eliminating the need to carry a tap. Unfortunately the self drilling screws that I bought were not quite 1/4"-20 thread pitch. They are close, but not quite. Not wanting to give up on the idea of using my impact driver to drill and tap, I continued looking for 1\4"-20 self tapping screws, and eventually found these. They are not self drilling, you have to drill a 13/64" pilot hole and then use these to do the tapping function. But when you do that, you end up with a true 1\4" threaded hole. You will need a T-30 star drive bit, but this allows you to drill and tap using a portable drill or an impact driver. I hope this review helps. ... show more

  • Best you can buy, FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS
Item Package Quantity: 1 Size: 1/4-20 x 2 1/2 inch
We bought these to (again) re-deck an 18 foot heavy equipment trailer. Pay attention to the installation instructions. You MUST pre-drill with the exact size drill bit specified or these hardened screws will snap off. We installed them on 1/4 mild steel stringers without issue--after we followed the directions. The heads also don't strip out, even when removing the old rusted fasteners (same brand, ten years earlier). I've tried the "bargain" brands in the past but these are worth the money if you don't want stripped or broken lesser quality screws and want to make sure they come out when the time comes. ... show more

  • Perfect for floor decks and car hauler trailer screws
Item Package Quantity: 1 Size: 1/4-20 x 2 inch
These self tapping screws! I think you will still need a drill bit to drill out pilot holes! Other than that, there are extremely rugged and heavy duty! I out it on my car hauler and they have survived all the abuse and being out in bad weather conditions! Not one single one stripped! The size was also perfect for 2” inch boards and still had plenty left. They also griped very good to the angle irons! Can probably be used for fences as well, versatile screws ... show more
