Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 116786 is a 35-pack of No. 8 by 1 inch flat head, star drive multi-material exterior screws finished in bronze epoxy coating. Designed for outdoor and mixed-substrate applications, these fasteners deliver corrosion resistance suited to demanding exterior conditions. The flat head profile sits flush with the work surface, and the star drive recess provides positive bit engagement that reduces cam-out. Licensed trade professionals and skilled DIYers who work with composite materials, framing, or exterior assemblies will find these screws dependable across multiple substrate types.

These screws are rated for use on wood, masonry, drywall, and plastic, making them a practical choice for exterior trim, deck accessories, sheathing attachment, and general exterior repair work. The bronze epoxy premium coating provides a layer of protection against moisture and oxidation in exposed installations. The multi-material design eliminates the need to stock separate fasteners for different substrates on the same job site.

Installation Notes

Install using a star drive bit matched to the recess size to avoid stripping. Pre-drilling a pilot hole is recommended when fastening into hardwood, masonry, or dense plastic to prevent substrate cracking and to ensure proper seating of the flat head. Power down any adjacent electrical systems before fastening near wiring runs or electrical boxes. Follow applicable local building codes for exterior fastener requirements in your jurisdiction.
