Metallics RSDS5B – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What driver bit do I need for the Metallics RSDS5B deck screws?
A T25 star bit. The RSDS5B uses a flat six-lobe (star) recess, so a T25 Torx-style driver seats fully and resists cam-out when you are sinking the bugle head flush into decking.
2) Do I have to pre-drill for these #9 x 2-1/2 inch deck screws in hardwood?
No. The RSDS5B has a Type 17 auger point, and the chip cavity lets the screw drive even in denser woods without a pilot hole. In very brittle or thin stock near an edge you may still want a pilot to avoid splitting, but the point is designed to cut its own.
3) Are yellow zinc deck screws OK for pressure-treated lumber outdoors?
The RSDS5B is carbon steel with a yellow zinc dichromate finish. That coating handles general exterior deck and framing work, but it is not stainless. For coastal exposure, standing moisture, or direct contact with the newer copper-based treated lumber over a long service life, a stainless or heavy polymer-coated deck screw is the safer call.
4) How many Metallics RSDS5B screws come in a box?
They ship as a box of 1,190 pieces, which is also the order minimum. There is no smaller split pack on this item.
5) Will the bugle head countersink itself or do I need to counterbore?
It self-countersinks in wood. The head measures 0.316 to 0.358 inch across and only 0.124 inch high, so the tapered bugle underside draws itself flush into softwood or composite-free decking as you drive. No counterbore needed.
6) Do Metallics RSDS5B deck screws qualify for a Buy American or ARRA job?
Metallics lists the RSDS5B as both Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant. Country of origin is listed as multiple, so if a specific project spec requires documented domestic melt and manufacture, ask for the mill paperwork on the lot you receive.
7) What steel are these Metallics deck screws made from?
AISI 1018 to 1022 low-carbon steel, finished in yellow zinc dichromate. That is the standard grade for a case-hardened wood screw, which is what gives the Type 17 point enough hardness to cut without the shank being brittle.
8) How much does a box of 1,190 of these deck screws weigh for shipping or carrying up a ladder?
About 14.28 lbs per box. Worth knowing if you are staging material on a roof deck or a balcony job where you are carrying by hand.
