🔧 Nail it fast, nail it strong—because your projects deserve the best!
The Simpson Strong-Tie SDWS16300QMB is a 0.160-inch by 3-inch framing screw featuring a large 0.450-inch head with underhead box-nibs for enhanced bearing and clean countersinking. Its SawTooth Type-17 tip enables quick starts without predrilling, while serrated threads reduce installation torque. The 6-lobe drive minimizes cam-outs, extending bit life. Includes a BIT25T-2-R2 driver bit for immediate use in structural framing applications.

Excellent Screws
I've been using the 3 and 4 inch framing screws while renovating about 40 horse stalls. The grip strength and quality is great. Only complaint is they don't sell them by the dump truck. I've used several thousand of these and will continue to do so.

Death To Nails!
I'll never use a nail again, unless its a nail'mergency. These things are wicked strong in shear and tighten like crazy. Best part!? If you mess up you can simply unscrew it and try again with your frame or whatever.Structural Screws > 16D Nail

Dynamic Screw
It spins, grips, and thrusts itself forward - while not at all as annoying as others who do the same.

Fairly expensive, but worth the cost depending on your speific application or use.
The screw started easily and quickly in the 2x3's I was using. They seemed to hold securely. I liked the wafer head, it pulled down the 2x3's flat when tightened without burying the head in the wood, although the head did get driven in to some extent, but not like countersunk head srews would. This feature also helped prevent the screw end from pointing out the other side of the work.

Good product worth the price
Perfect for screwing down deck rail uprights. Worth what you pay for. Design allows for smaller pieces to be screwed without splitting the smaller pieces.

2 inch screws NOT 3 inch
These screws are NOT 3 inches. They are 2 inches and absolutely useless. I ordered these as part of a major deck project so didn't look inside to measure the screw (who would think to have to do that?). By the time I actually went to use these screws I realized the length was terribly short but the return window at Amazon was 10 days passed. What a gigantic waste of money (and these were $$$). Don't buy these screws. Either Simpson is deceiving you with the length or they have a major manufacturing problem. Either way you won't get what you expect.

Strong Screw
Great screws. Loving the pulling power. Work construction and use them all the time.
