This review is from: Kreg SML-C250B-250 Blue-Kote Weather Resistant Pocket Hole Screws - 2 1/2", #8 Coarse, Washer Head, 250 count (Tools & Home Improvement)
These washer head screws are fantastic. They clamp the parts tightly without splitting the wood. They run in fast and easy. Wherever you have a pocket hole application, or wherever you don't mind a visible screw head (not countersunk, although they could be counterbored), use a washer head screw for maximum clamping. Oh, and I haven't broken any off yet, like many other screws.

This review is from: Kreg SML-C250B-250 Blue-Kote Weather Resistant Pocket Hole Screws - 2 1/2", #8 Coarse, Washer Head, 250 count (Tools & Home Improvement)
I have become a fan of the Kreg system and have used the smaller screw sizes in a couple of projects now.

These longer Blue-Kote screw were ordered for an outdoor project, a little shed to store the stuff that is now scattered all over the place. This was, of course, an outdoor project and is made with 2X4s, so the 2.5" weather resistant screws were selected.

The longer screws are no harder to use than the shorter ones. Despite using an impact driver (which is a very good tool for this fastening system), no screws were broken or stripped. They are obviously high quality. Most of us have used cheap-brand screws that are just are too soft and easily broken.

It remains to be seen how long the screws will last, whether the "Blue-Kote" stands up. I used redwood and pressure-treated wood and they can be tough on metal fasteners, but I have faith that Kreg uses a quality coating.

Also, as a bonus, these screws can be used as surface-mount, non-pocket fasteners, whenever that flat head configuration would be useful. The blue ones would look cool on some projects.

Perfect for outdoor projects involving 2x4 lumber. I just built the best gate I've ever seen... not a bit of rack in it and the filled pocket-screw holes look perfect. It's almost a shame to paint the gate and hide that great work!

These are the perfect depth/length for 2x4s.
