Titan Metal Werks continually strives to stay abreast of industry trends and changes. We work to develop special use fastener solutions to answer whatever installation needs or challenges arise from their use.
The building industry today continues to expand the development and use of new and innovative materials. Many of these new product choices are man-made alternatives to traditional wood products, offering increased benefit, in terms of maintenance, product lifespan, appearance or cost. Still others remain in the wood products category but introduce wood species, grown in exotic climates which deliver similarly sought-after properties, for use in the construction of decks and other outdoor projects, without sacrificing the naturally varied appearance of real wood. Along with their benefits, these new product choices often bring to the table, new or varied installation concerns or issues.

White Painted Cellular-Trim Screws
Use of a pre-painted white screw, when installing pre-finished white trim boards, will speed installation time, negating the need for a painter to make screw-head touch-ups after application. The use of screws will also provide a more positive clamp than the traditional nailing option, as well. SplitStop White-Painted Cellular PVC-Trim Screws are available in a 2” length, for use with ¾” thick trim boards and a 2 ½” length, for use in 1”- 1 ¼” thick trim boards.
White-Painted Cellular PVC-Trim Screws are not designed for use in ACQ Treated Lumber and are not recommended for use as a composite decking screw. |

Exotic Brown Head-Painted Star Drive Stainless Steel Screws
The drive properties inherent to our star drive wood screws make them an excellent choice for use in hard, dense, exotic hardwood species of decking boards, like those manufactured from ipe', camaru and the like. The use of stainless steel assures lifetime corrosion resistance and the ability to eliminate tannin-acid stains, which can form due to reactions with other fastener finishes. We now offer this top-of-the-line SplitStop screw with a special exotic-brown painted head, which eliminates the natural bright stainless appearance of the screw and replaces it with a warm brown tone that fades from view in the overall appearance of the deck. SplitStop Exotic Brown Head-Painted Star Drive Stainless Steel screws are available in 2 ½” and 3” lengths.
