Metallics GDS5M – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How many Metallics GDS5M deck screws come in a box?
The GDS5M ships as a box of 1,000 screws, and 1,000 is also the order minimum. If you only need a handful for a single device box or strap, this is not the right pack size; it is a bulk buy for crews doing repeat wood fastening.
2) What size screw is the Metallics GDS5M?
It's a #8 diameter screw, 3 inches long, with a flat head and a Phillips drive. The 3 inch length is enough to pass through a 3/4 inch board and still get solid bite into framing behind it.
3) Can these Metallics deck screws be used outdoors or in damp locations?
They're rated for all-weather wood applications, with a yellow zinc dichromate finish over steel for corrosion resistance. For permanently wet service or in contact with ACQ treated lumber, a stainless or coating specifically approved for treated wood is the safer call.
4) Will the GDS5M flat head sit flush, or do I need to countersink?
The flat head is designed to self-countersink into wood and finish flush with the surface, so you don't need to pre-drill a countersink in softwood. In hardwood or near a board end, a pilot hole keeps the stock from splitting.
5) Are coarse thread deck screws like the GDS5M right for framing lumber, or should I use fine thread?
Coarse is what you want in wood. The GDS5M is a coarse, UNC thread deck screw, which bites and holds in softwood framing and decking far better than a fine thread. Fine thread is for hardwood and metal substrates; it tends to strip out in standard dimensional lumber.
6) Do Metallics GDS deck screws meet Buy American and ARRA requirements for a public project?
The GDS5M is flagged compliant for both ARRA and Buy American, which matters on federally funded and public agency work. Country of origin is listed as multiple, so if your spec requires a single documented origin, request origin documentation for the lot you receive.
7) How much does a 1000 count box of GDS5M screws weigh and how big is the carton?
The box runs 11.13 lbs, measuring 7.25 by 6.25 by 6 inches. Light enough to carry up a ladder bucket by bucket, and small enough that several boxes fit in a van shelf bin if you're standardizing one screw across a crew.
