Driver Bit for SideLoc Installation Tool
What SIDELoc Driver Bits Are
SIDELoc driver bits are specialty Torx (star-drive) bits designed specifically to install SIDELoc hidden deck screws used with AZEK® / TimberTech® Advanced PVC decking. They’re engineered to work seamlessly with the SIDELoc installation guides to ensure proper screw depth, angle, and holding power.
