I notice Screwfix are discounting some of their decking screws. I go through quite a lot of decking screws but normally use 4.5 thick. The discounted screws

lol at the '4 thick'.
I wouldn't use anythig less than a 5mm for decking, maybe that's just me.
Hi,
If 4 refers to the overall thread diameter and not the shank, then it's about the same as a #8 thread which is seems a bit spindly for a
4" screw.Wonder what Medway Handyman uses?
cheers, Pete.
I've always used the Wickes No 8 x 3"
I use 28mm boards.
Never had a problem. Impact driver, no pilot hole. As you say, the odd one snaps when you remove it, but I find that rare.
I guess the Screwfix ones are marginally cheaper than Wickes, but its not a lot.
