Midwest Fasteners Saberdrive Flat Head Star Drive Black Phosphate Steel Deck Screw

Midwest Fasteners Saberdrive Flat Head Star Drive Black Phosphate Steel Deck Screw

The Midwest Fasteners Saberdrive Deck Screw is a coarse thread, flat head wood and construction screw engineered for exterior decking and floor board work where corrosion resistance and a clean, countersunk finish matter. Machined from steel and finished in black phosphate, each screw uses a star (Saberdrive) drive for strong bit engagement and reduced cam-out under high-torque driving. This listing covers the full Saberdrive Deck Screw family, available from 1/4"-20 x 1" up through 5/16"-18 x 3", so installers can match screw diameter and length to the thickness of the decking or floor board material being fastened. Manufactured in Taiwan, every size in the range shares the same steel construction, black phosphate finish, flat head profile and star drive for consistent field performance on professional jobsites and serious DIY projects alike.
