Understanding Star Drive Screws, Square Drive, and Phillips Drive
The screw drive type refers to the bit used to drive the screw. Using the correct bit to drive your screws is essential and makes for an efficient installation.
Manasquan Fasteners carries screws in a variety of drive styles to match your project’s specifications and your personal preference.:
- Star Drive Screws: Known for excellent torque transfer and low bit slippage
- Square Drive Screws: Popular for framing and decking, strong engagement with minimal cam-out
- Phillips Drive Screws: Versatile and widely used across general construction projects
Selecting the right drive type reduces stripping, improves precision, and ensures your projects go smoothly.
