Product Brochure
The Deck-Drive DSV WOOD screw is a powerful fastening solution
for preservative-treated and exterior wood-to-wood decking
applications. DSV screws are offered with Quik Guard
®
coating
in Tan, Red and Gray (collated only) and in a variety of sizes to
fasten fascia and trim. With its underhead nibs and “high-low”
point, the DSV is ideally suited to be driven and countersunk into
today’s wood deck boards. The shank is designed to withstand the
swelling and shrinkage that is common with sawn lumber decking.
Available in bulk and in collated strips for use in our Quik Drive
®
auto-feed screw driving system.

1. Allowable loads are based on full penetration into the main member. Full
penetration is the screw length minus the side member thickness.
2. Allowable loads are shown at the wood load duration factor of C
D
=
1.0. Loads may be increased for load duration per the building code
up to a C
D
= 1.6. Tabulated values must be multiplied by all applicable
adjustment factors per the NDS. For in-service moisture content greater
than 19%, use C
M
= 0.62.
3. Loads are based on installation into the side grain of the wood with the
screw axis perpendicular to the face of the member.
4. Loads are based on tests of connections made with same species as
main and side members.
5. Engineered wood must have a minimum grade of modulus of elasticity
value of 0.80E and have a minimum equivalent specific gravity at least
0.50 to use the DFL/SP values or 0.42 to use the SPF/HF values.

Simpson Strong-Tie #10 Deck-Drive DSV Wood screws are designed for preservative-treated decking applications and
can also be used for general framing and construction with wood and engineered wood products. The screws have been
tested in accordance with ICC-ES Acceptance Criteria AC233
(
