If you’re tired of stripped heads and cam-out, star drive screws offer a better solution. The six-point recess is designed for deep bit engagement and high torque transfer. That means smoother driving and fewer interruptions on the job.
Unlike Phillips or slotted fasteners, star drive deck screws hold the bit firmly in place. You get consistent performance, even in dense pressure-treated lumber and hardwoods. For decking and exterior builds, that reliability matters.

6 Lobe Star drive recess, similar to Torx® Self-countersinking bugle head in medium & soft density wood Type 17 notched point for fast penetration Threaded approximately 2/3 of shank on most sizes Deep coarse threads for better hold Approved for use in all pressure treated lumber Always specify Type 316 Stainless Steel for Salt Water applications New package sizes, same screws Important Installation Instructions: If the screws are to be driven by a screw gun, be sure the bit is securely seated in the star recess of the screw. Start slowly and gradually increase speed until the head is driven flush. A high driving speed increases the chance of stripping the drive recess. If the tool has an adjustable torque collar, use a piece of scrap lumber to determine the proper setting needed to drive the head flush with the surface. This will prevent the screw head from twisting off.
