Simpson Strong-Tie has introduced DSV Wood deck screws with black coating for building and construction projects. DSV Wood deck screws are designed for the rigors of preservative-treated decking and exterior wood-to-wood applications.
They feature underhead nibs, facilitating countersink into the board, a high-low threaded tip for driving, a shank designed to withstand the swelling and shrinkage common to sawn lumber decking and low-torque threads.
A Quik Guard coating provides corrosion resistance against exterior elements and certain wood treatments. The DSV lineup now includes a black coating option, alongside tan, red and gray, to blend with each project’s color needs.
“The new black DSV screw not only provides strength and durability but also adds a touch of aesthetics to outdoor living spaces, whether you're a professional builder or embarking on a DIY project, it’s the ideal choice for decking, fencing, outdoor furniture projects, pergolas and more,” said Eric Philip, fasteners product manager for Simpson Strong-Tie.
Deck-Drive DSV Wood screws with the black Quik Guard coating come in #8 and #10 sizes and three lengths for hand-drive applications. Screws offered in #10 sizes are load-rated for shear, pull-through and withdrawal resistance. Multiple package sizes are available.
