T25 6-Lobe, Tan (2000-Qty)\u003c\/strong\u003e is a collated exterior wood screw built for wood-to-wood deck fastening. This is a \u003cstrong\u003ecollated wood screw\u003c\/strong\u003e designed for \u003cstrong\u003eexterior decking and other wood-to-wood fastening\u003c\/strong\u003e. Model Number: \u003cstrong\u003eDSVT158S\u003c\/strong\u003e. If you are running a Quik Drive auto-feed system and want a deck screw that starts fast, countersinks cleanly, and holds up outdoors, this is the right type of fastener.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eWhat matters here is how the screw behaves in the material. The low-torque thread design helps it drive with less resistance, which is a real advantage when you are sinking a lot of fasteners in one session. The high-low tip is built for fast starts, so the screw engages the board quickly instead of skating around on the surface. That helps with speed and helps keep placement more consistent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe head design is just as important on a deck screw as the coating. Simpson uses a rimmed flat head with nibs, which is there for one reason: cleaner countersinking. On deck boards, that means the head seats more neatly without leaving a rough, proud finish. The variable thread design is optimized for dimensional lumber, and the screw is intended to deal with the swelling and shrinkage common in modern fast-growth wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eFor exterior work, the Quik Guard coating is the main story. It provides corrosion resistance for exterior applications and certain preservative-treated wood, and the screw also meets ICC-ES AC257 performance requirements for exposure conditions 1 and 3. In plain terms, this is not a drywall screw pretending to be a deck screw. It is made for outdoor use where moisture, treated lumber, and seasonal movement matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe collated format is what makes this product especially useful for production decking. These screws are compatible with Simpson Strong-Tie Quik Drive auto-feed screw driving systems, including the Quik Drive PRO200SG2, Quik Drive PRO250G2, and Quik Drive Project Pro. They use a T25 6-lobe drive, so you get solid bit engagement compared to smaller recess styles that tend to cam out under repeated driving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThis screw makes the most sense for deck builders, remodelers, fence crews, and serious DIY users who are already on the Quik Drive platform or want faster repetitive fastening on exterior wood projects. If you are hand-driving a few boards, loose screws may be more practical. If you are fastening a lot of deck boards and want speed, consistency, and a cleaner finished look, this collated Simpson fastener is a smart buy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails id=\"product-benefits\" class=\"acc\"\u003e\n  \u003csummary\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBuilt for Fast, Repetitive Deck Fastening\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"acc-body\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"img\"\u003e\n        \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.anglera.com\/assets\/74d6ed76-fe0d-4d23-a9db-1f8749ca9ef2\/10497946812710_9e34dcb78e8b.jpg\" alt=\"Simpson Strong-Tie DSVT158S Deck-Drive DSV Wood Screw collated strip shown as a connected row of tan exterior wood screws for Quik Drive deck fastening on wood decking jobs\" class=\"tnblock-img\"\u003e\n      \u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"copy\"\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003eThe collated strip format is what separates this screw from a standard box of loose deck fasteners.
