Today we're going to review the 2 1/2 inch long torch trailer floor and wall liner screw for ACQ treated wood. Now the torque's flat head screws make securing a wood floor or a wall liner to your trailer quick, easy and economical. The screw uses a type F point, which is designed for securing your wood floor or your wall liner to heavy gauge sheet metal. Now these screws are specifically designed for use on the ACQ, which is the alkaline copper quantinary wood. This is because this ACQ is a treated wood. It's very corrosive. These screws have been made with an approved plating material that is less expensive than using stainless steel screws and has been shows to outperform galvanized screws. If you notice has the tapered flat head, which will sit flush with the surface when they're installed.
The torque's head size is a T30. The diameter of this screw is a quarter inch. The overall length, if you put a ruler on it, you can see is going to be right at 2 1/2 inches long. We had mentioned it uses a type F point and what that is it has a blunt tip and as I rotate it, is if you look at the very end, it has multiple cutting surfaces. Now when you do install this, it does require drilling a 7/32 pilot hole. That should do it for the review of the 2 1/2 inch long torques trailer floor and wall liner screw for ACQ treated wood..

Torx flathead screws make securing a wood floor to your trailer quick, easy and economical with a 1/4" diameter and type F points for heavy-gauge sheet metal. Specially designed for use on Alkaline Copper Quaternary wood.Quick shipping. Wish they didnt mix the different screws I ordered all together.
I expected to snap a few off, but it didn't happen. Very well made.
Great product with lightning fast shipping! Will do business again soon! A+++
Arrived super fast. Haven't used them yet but look to be consistent high quality just as the other items I received.
Very good product. Purchased 300 of these to replace the deck on my trailer and only had one strip out and one twist the head off.
Just as stated, pre drill a 7/32 pilot hole and drive the screw through the PT floor with the torx and into the steel plating for a great tight fit.
Very easy installation. Make sure to use a cobalt drill bit to get through the metal with ease. These screws counter sink into the PT wood
easily.
I have not installed the trailer deck with these screws yet but they appear to be what I ordered and a quality product. Also have not yet installed the breakaway kit.
My truck bed screws arrived via UPS before I even had time to track the shipment. Just as I ordered and quick. I'm a loyal customer now.
used these with dewalt 1/4inch impact after drilling recommended pilot holes to redo my atv trailer. none broke. excellent fasteners
Exactly what was needed before installing the torx screws into the trailer frame. The only issue was that the old screws did not come out; had to take those off even with the frame using an angle grinder and cut-off wheel. Twice, while drilling, I ran into what was left of the old bolts. One of those trips snapped off the end of the bit. Otherwise, no issues, and I'm glad I had two drill bits (to install 32 screws).

Installation was easy, and after staining my trailer deck and repainting the frame I have a trailer that is better put together than the original. Those screws hold the boards tight to the frame, and have shown no sigh yet of loosening or rusting.
By far the best screws that I have ever used and are well worth the money. I looked at other screws to use with treated lumber and not only did they look inferior they cost more. The combination of the screws and the drive bit are definitely a wining combination.
I highly recommend purchasing the Torx driver bit at the same time. Not a "cheap" product. I installed 170+ screws thru 3/16 cross members (after using a 7/32 bit for the pilot hole) and the bit shows very little wear. I highly recommend both of these products.
On a side note. The web site exceeded my expectations for information. I called the customer service desk with a question and received the info that I was looking for. Then they followed it up an email. Best online company that I have worked with. Will definitely recommend to others. Thanks, Bill M.

Everything is great. None to very little cupping of the treated 2 x 8s. Shrinkage of the boards was about what I expected. Still very happy with the screws and the bit. I have recommended both products to others that are thinking about redecking their trailers.
From start to finish etrailer has been great to do business with. Start with a clean surface, measure twice cut once, and drill for every screw...all went in like butter no screws damaged. We never redecked a trailer before, will do them all in house going forward. Two guys 4 hrs (includes breakfast and a lumber run). Couldn’t be happier.

Its been a year...two trailer hauling mowers, a BX25d, probably over 100tons of gravel-2-3tons per load, scrap metal runs, trash hauling and no popped screw all boards are holding just fine...great products!!! Buy them you will be happy! I am??
I have purchased these in different lengths. I just built a 6 X 9 utility trailer. Not only are these the best price, they are by FAR the best quality I have used. Not one broke or stripped.
Cheap Chinese copies either snap off, or the threads strip out. I was putting them thru 1/8" wall tubing. No problem at all.
Also, it is important to note that the coating on these allows them to be used in virtually any type of wood. AC2, ACQ, Oak (many people don't realize how acidic Oak is), and others.
I really have nothing but the best marks for them.
These are the right length for attaching rough-cut decking to flat bed. Galvanizing has been holding up fine for a year or so, admitting truck is parked under carport most of the time. Socket head does not chew out driving it snug with manual driver.
This is an excellent product. This is the only way I will fasten down trailer decking material. Simple installation and great return in the investment.
I just finished putting the floor onto my trailer and not one of these screws broke during the process. In fact, I am placing an order for 100 more of them to have in my garage. Thanks for a great product.
These are perfect to fasten down the wooden boards in my horse trailer.
Great product, took my time, drilled pilot holes, broke no screws!

Holding strong, great product!
You need them get them going to use them to redo trailer decking Thanks
This was a great product and exactly what I was searching for. I needed a strong deck board screw that was strong and resistant to the corrosive properties of treated lumber. The screw did wonderful in its self tapping property. I only broke 1 of the 126 I installed in my trailer and that was because I drilled a sloppy hole beside a broken screw from the previous install. The screw tapped the metal easy enough that I was able to use cordless drills to install. Also the price was very reasonable and this is comparing it to screws that had a plain or zinc finish. Shipping was very fast and I used the free shipping option.

still pleased with this purchase. My trailer sits out and the screws are still holding strong. there is some fadingon the head. It appears this screw will outlast the wood. If it does, I will refloor my trailer and order these screws to install it again
Great product. I used 170 to re-deck my 8 x 16' flatbed trailer. I pre-drilled the pressure treated lumber and drilled pilot holes in the 3/16 cross members. I used my 1/2" angle head drill to install the screws as it turns at a slower rpm and still has the torque to drive them thru the 3/16 steel. I purchase the torx head bits (2) at the same time. I only used one bit and it still looks like new. Highly recommend both products.

I have used used the same bit on other projects and still works great.
Great service. Delivery was tracked and relatively fast. Fast to leave facility . Will do business with them again. Customer oriented response to my order. Thanks
Received the screws today. Right on time as ordered. I installed them right away. They work great! I ordered a few extra incase some stripped or would have problems with installation. I recently purchased a new Gooseneck trailer and it only had screws every 3rd cross member. I screwed every row now.
Well, now I have a few extra. They were easy to use. I did dip them into oil and they cut the threads very easy. Will contact again if I ever need more.

Exactly as expected. Highly recommend.
Great product works as should.
TFX250ACQ trailer floor screw. Great product. I used the screws to re-deck a flatbed trailer that was in desperate need of new wood on the deck.
Thanks etrailer.com !
