Technology >> Structure >> Purpose Designed Subfloor Fasteners

Fastening subfloor with screws rather than nails provides the power necessary to pull together joists and plywood, eliminating any gaps, and holding the materials firm. Callbacks for squeaks on floors installed with screws are rare. Purpose designed flooring screws have just the right shank size for pulling the flooring plywood tight to the joist, have larger threads for better holding power, and are coated for superior long-term performance.
