Trex launches fastener collection
The latest product launch from decking giant Trex Company proves is a comprehensive collection of Trex-branded deck fasteners and accessories.
Featuring more than 120 SKUs, the new Trex Hideaway Fastener Collection includes solutions for every composite deck fastening and finishing need – from color-matched screws and plugs to specially engineered bits, depth setters and clips – including several first-to-market innovations. The collection was researched and engineered to make installation easier and more efficient while delivering a clean, cohesive aesthetic, the company said. These new tools and accessories are fully compatible with all Trex decking products and have also work with most competitive decking options, the company said.
“This collection is poised to disrupt the industry by establishing Trex as a market leader in the decking hardware category,” said Adam Zambanini, executive vice president and chief operating officer for Trex Company. “Adding fasteners and finishing components to our portfolio solidifies Trex as a true and total one-stop supplier for decking, railing and accessories.”
New products will begin rolling out this month with the introduction of the patent pending Trex Hideaway Butt Joint Clip. Designed specifically for use where deck boards meet over a single joist, this specialized clip ensures perfect alignment and a strong connection without the hassle of additional joists and fasteners. The extra-wide “wings” of the clip provide the same secure connection as two standard hidden fasteners, so that just one clip is required per side. Additionally, the clip’s “shoulders” provide the support of two joists, eliminating the need for a sister joist in end-to-end deck board applications and resulting in quicker deck installation without compromising aesthetics.
Next up this spring will be the introduction of Trex Hideaway Deck Plugs and Trex Hideaway Fascia Plugs. More products are coming later in the year.
“These new components join our already successful Trex Hideaway Hidden Fasteners to round out the most robust fastening offering of any composite decking brand,” added Zambanini.
