Metallics RSDS6V – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size driver bit do I need for the Metallics RSDS6V deck screws?
A T25 star bit. The RSDS6V uses a star (flat six-lobe) recess, so a T25 Torx-style driver seats fully and keeps the bit from camming out when you run 3 inch screws into dense framing.
2) Do I have to pre-drill a pilot hole for these 3 inch deck screws?
No. The RSDS6V has a Type 17 point, the chip cavity or auger point that lets the fastener drive even in denser woods without pre-drilling a pilot hole. That is the main reason crews choose a Type 17 over a plain gimlet-point deck screw on hardwood decking or older dried framing.
3) Are yellow zinc deck screws OK for pressure treated lumber and outdoor decks?
The RSDS6V is carbon steel with a yellow zinc dichromate finish. That coating gives moderate corrosion resistance for general exterior wood fastening, but it is not stainless and it is not a coating rated against the copper-based chemistry in modern pressure treated lumber. For ACQ or CA treated decking in a wet or coastal location, step up to stainless or a polymer-coated treated-lumber deck screw.
4) Will a bugle head deck screw sit flush in the decking or do I need to countersink?
The bugle head is self-countersinking in wood, which is why it is the standard head for decking. Head width runs 0.316 to 0.358 in. with a head height of 0.124 in., so it draws down into the board face and leaves a shallow dish rather than a proud head you would trip a snow shovel on.
5) How many screws come in a box of Metallics RSDS6V?
They ship as a 500 count box. The order minimum is 500 CT, so 500 pieces is the smallest quantity you can buy, and the box weighs 7.35 lbs.
6) Do Metallics RSDS6V screws meet Buy American and ARRA requirements for a public project?
Both flags are marked compliant on the RSDS6V: ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant. Country of origin is listed as multiple, so if your contract requires a single named origin on the submittal, specify it at the time of order.
7) What steel are these deck screws made from?
AISI 1018 to 1022 low carbon steel, case hardened in the usual way for a Type 17 point to bite without pre-drilling. Thread is a 9 threads-per-inch UNC form.
8) Can I get the Metallics RSDS screws in other lengths or box counts?
The RSDS series runs other sizes and quantities by request; RSDS6V is specifically the 9 x 3 in. bugle head star drive Type 17 screw in a 500 count box. If you need a shorter screw for 5/4 decking over thin framing or a longer one for stair stringers, ask for the alternate size in the same series.
