The Simpson Strong-Tie Deck-Drive DSV Wood Screw is a high-performance fastener designed for preservative-treated decking and exterior wood-to-wood applications. Its under-head nibs and fast-start tip allow for easy driving and countersinking into today’s wood deck boards. The shank is engineered to accommodate the swelling and shrinkage common with fast-growth lumber.

- Low-Torque Threads: Allows up to 35% more screws to be driven per battery charge.
- Ribbed Flat Head with Nibs: Countersinks easily, providing a clean, finished appearance.
- High-Low Threaded Tip: Ensures fast starts and optimized performance in dimensional lumber.
- Quik Guard Coating: Offers corrosion resistance for exterior and preservative-treated wood.
