Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Collated stainless tile screws pay for themselves on tile reroofs by dramatically cutting fastening time versus hand driving. Set depth so the screw is snug without cracking tile, and follow the tile manufacturer's fastening pattern for your wind zone. In coastal or high-corrosion exposures, stainless is the right call over coated fasteners.
Always use the Quik Drive system per its operating instructions and wear eye protection; screws have sharp points and edges.
