The Simpson Strong-Tie Trim-Head Decking Screw is designed for PVC and composite decking projects where corrosion resistance and appearance matter most. Made from 316 stainless steel for lasting durability, these screws perform reliably in marine or high-exposure environments. Painted head options in 13 colors are matched to leading decking brands for a seamless, concealed finish. For a full reference, see the Composite Decking Color Matching Guide.

For efficient installation, the screw features a 6-lobe drive that reduces cam-out and extends bit life. A sharp Type 17 point ensures quick starts, while coarse threads on the shank pull deck boards tightly to framing for lasting hold. Available in both collated and hand-drive versions, these screws deliver professional-grade fastening for today’s decking systems.
