ProMax™ Optimized Thread Length™
Whether you are building some great looking 2 x 4 furniture or doing a bit of light framing, ProMax™
Optimized Thread Length™ screws will make construction easier. The extra long unthreaded shank
prevents cross-threading or jacking without the need for a clearance hole, and the 1/8” length system
allows use of the longest screw possible without fear of backside protrusion. These Square Drive
screws have self drilling auger points, self countersinking nibs, and have a light “lube” finish suitable
for interior, non-visible applications.

Which Screw Should I Use?
Selecting the best fastener for any decking job requires answering just three
easy questions: What decking material will be used? Will the deck be exposed
to a corrosive environment? Finally, how thick is the decking material? The
choice of fastener material is dictated by both the decking material and the
environment. Galvanized screws work well with pressure-treated decking,
G E N E R A L S C R E W S
while Redwood or Western Red Cedar decks are usually built with stainless
steel screws to prevent staining around the screw heads. The new man-made
decking materials, such as Trex® polymer wood, can be fastened with either
galvanized-steel, ceramic-coated or stainless steel screws. Tropical wood
decking, such as Ipe, Pau Lope™ or Teak, is generally fastened with stainless
steel screws for virtually a lifetime of maintenance-free service. The corrosive
atmosphere of a seaside location dictates a minimum of type 305 stainless

S Docks, because of
steel fasteners,
their more severe service requirements, should be built with type 316 stainless
steel screws. Screw material also dictates the screw gauge required. Our
hardened-steel NoCoRode Plus screws are strong enough that #8s are adequate
for most applications, while the softer stainless steel normally requires a #10
screw. If you are in an area that experiences extreme weather conditions or if
the structure may experience unusual loads, consult a Licensed Professional
Engineer for design assistance. Fastener length is easiest to determine, since
it is governed by the thickness of the decking itself. Standard 2x4s or 2x6s
require a 3”L fastener, while 5/4x4s or 5/4x6s only require a 2-1/2”L fastener.
With rare exceptions, it’s that simple. The following table lists fasteners

McFeely’s ProMax® Wood Deck Screws, NoCoRode PLUS,
Flat Head, Square Drive B
ProMax Optimized Thread Design to Reduce Board Jacking
Features:
• ProMax Screws have a longer un-threaded shank. Why? This feature prevents board jacking,
that annoying problem when a board rides up the threads of the screw and causes the board
to raise up. For example: A 2-3/8” screw used to install 5/4” decking needs slightly more than
1” of smooth shank, while a 2-7/8” screw used to install 1-1/2” thick 2x stock needs more.
• Self-drilling auger points
• Self -countersinking nibs,
• NoCoRode “Plus” corrosion-resistant finish.
Use NoCoRode Undersized driver bits for best results. They are specially designed with undersized
tips that fit the recess of NoCoRode PLUS plated screws perfectly. Made in Taiwan or China

Superior Corrosion Resistance for Extreme Environments
If you are building in a seaside, a poolside, or a dockside environments, you need to use 316 grade
stainless steel fasteners to achieve adequate corrosion-resistance. These screws not only meet that
requirement, but they feature the easy-to-use Star or 6 Lobe recess design to virtually eliminate camout. Imported.

ProMax® Optimized Thread Length™: What It Means and Why You’ll Like
It!
Deck screws are a good example of Optimized Thread Length™. The screws
normally used to install 2x4s or 2x6s for decking are 3”L and have 1” of
unthreaded shank. Since 2x4 and 2x6 deck material is 1-1/2” thick, the threads
bridge the joint, as shown, resulting in either an uneven and unsightly surface
or screws that are over-driven trying to “pull the board down.” ProMax screws
are different. Thread length is optimized to eliminate crossthreading. Plus, the
1/8”L system allows use of the longest possible screw.
