Starborn CAP-TOR Carbon Steel 3" Screws

The Starborn CAP-TOR Carbon Steel 3" Screws are specially designed for installing composite and PVC decking, ensuring a secure and durable hold. Engineered with a corrosion-resistant epoxy coating, these screws offer exceptional performance in a variety of environmental conditions.

The screws feature a star drive recess for reduced cam-out, as well as a reverse-thread design that prevents mushrooming and ensures a clean, professional finish.
