Fascia Board Screw
The Simpson Strong-Tie® Fascia-Fastening Solution™ consists of the counterbore bit and fascia screw, and is specially designed to securely fasten composite and PVC fascia while providing superior corrosion resistance. The fascia screw is specially designed to secure fascia material firmly in place while allowing the boards to expand and contract due to environmental conditions. The result is a professional installation that prevents occurances of head pullover, broken screws, warping, buckling and oil-canning.
- The Type 316 stainless-steel fascia screw is driven through the predrilled and counterbored fascia material and securely into the substrate material
- Additional space around the shank of the fascia screw allows for the expansion and contraction of the fascia board
- For use with 1/2"–3/4"-thick fascia boards
- Available in 12 colors to match major manufacturers' fascia material
- Approved for attachment of Trex® Fascia Boards

Installation
Easy and efficient. Use the fascia counterbore bit to predrill the oversized, counterbore holes into your fascia material. Refer to the spacing diagram in the Gallery, Installation tab.
- Starting at the upper left corner, position the first hole 2" from the upper and left edges (top left corner). Then continue predrilling holes every 24" on center, with the final hole positioned 2" from the right edge. Repeat this process, starting 2" from the bottom and left edges (bottom left corner), but place the second hole 12" from the first and then stagger predrill holes every 24" after that, with the final hole 2" from the bottom and right edges.
- Using a drill-driver motor with torsion setting adjusted to drive the screw flush with the board surface, install fascia screws into each hole. Do not overdrive or over tighten.
