have any of you used SplitStop deck screws?  I'm about to rebuild my deck, and they look like they work well.

Yes, they work awesome.  Get the star drive ones.  Square drive sucks.  I use them for Trex decking and PT spindles.

look like you just get less thread engagement (bigger holes vs regular screws)

They are an excellent product and I have driven in thousands of them.  The thread engagement is just fine.  I am commenting from a lot of expirience here.


I used to use these but I prefer the star drive on the split stops much better.

Damn, I ordered the square drive ones.  I guess that I'll just have to go slow with them.
