Metallics CPD3M – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the Metallics CPD3M deck screw be used in pressure treated lumber?
Yes. The CPD3M carries a ceramic polymer coating over steel that protects against corrosion and is rated for use in pressure treated lumber, with good wear resistance and strong resistance to UV radiation. That matters because modern ACQ-type treated lumber is hard on bare or plain-plated steel fasteners.
2) What driver bit do I need for Metallics CPD3M deck screws, and is one included?
The head takes a combination square/Phillips drive, so either a #2 square or a #2 Phillips bit will turn it. A free power bit ships with the box, so a crew can start without sourcing bits separately. The square recess runs 0.110 to 0.113 in. wide and 0.064 to 0.075 in. deep; the Phillips recess is 0.176 to 0.201 in. across and 0.124 in. deep.
3) Do I have to pre-drill for a #9 x 2-1/2 in. Type 17 deck screw?
The CPD3M uses a Type 17 point, which is a notched auger-style tip that cuts its own clearance as it drives. In most softwood and treated decking that removes the need to pre-drill and cuts down on splitting. Near board ends or in dense hardwood, a pilot hole is still the safer call.
4) Are Metallics CPD3M deck screws Buy American or ARRA compliant for a government job?
No. The CPD3M is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, and country of origin is listed as multiple. If you are buying for a federally funded project with domestic sourcing requirements, this screw will not satisfy them.
5) Will the bugle head on these screws sit flush in the board?
Yes, that is what a bugle head does. The curved underside pulls itself into wood and seats flush without a countersink. On the CPD3M the head measures 0.334 to 0.363 in. across with a head height of 0.020 to 0.039 in., and it has nibs under the head to help it cut in and finish clean.
6) How many Metallics CPD3M screws come in a box, and can I buy fewer?
The CPD3M is sold as a box of 1,000 screws, and 1,000 is the order minimum. If you need a different count or a different length in the same CPD ceramic-coated deck screw line, Metallics offers other sizes and quantities by request.
7) What thread does a #9 x 2-1/2 in. coarse thread deck screw have, and what is it holding into?
Coarse UNC threading at 8 threads per inch. That wide pitch is what you want in wood and treated lumber, where fewer, deeper threads bite the fibre and resist pull-out. It is not a screw for sheet metal or masonry. At 2-1/2 in. long with a #9 diameter it is a standard choice for fastening 5/4 or nominal 1 in. decking down to framing.
8) Why would an electrical or mechanical contractor stock a ceramic coated deck screw?
Metallics lists the CPD3M for the electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning trades. On those jobs it is the general-purpose wood fastener for blocking, backer boards, plywood equipment mounts and strut backing, where the corrosion-resistant ceramic polymer coating lets the same screw go into treated lumber or damp locations without swapping to stainless.
9) How much does a 1,000-count box of Metallics CPD3M screws weigh?
About 11.5 lbs for the box. Useful if you are planning a bulk order or a lift up to a roof or scaffold deck.
