Spax Wirox Decking Screws

Decking screws with T-STAR Plus (Torx) heads and Spax WIROX anti-corrosion protection.

WIROX coating from Spax offers better corrosion protection in the neutral salt-spray fog test than is required by standard for conventional bright zinc coating and it has a considerably higher surface hardness. This makes it ideal for outdoor use in structures such as carports and pergolas, in which they are not directly exposed to the elements. What’s more, WIROX has a considerably higher surface hardness than, for example, conventional yellow zinc coating or zinc flake coatings, making it more resistant to mechanical stress.
