The Equator Hidden fastener simplifies decking installation

Equator® Hidden Fastener

The innovative design of the Equator® hidden fastener accommodates the expansion and contraction in board width and length that that naturally occurs with composite decking. Installation is quick and easy with the Equator fastener, because the fastener installs from the top of the deck to eliminate the need for pre-drilling and automatically gap at the appropriate spacing.

Concealed

Equator hidden deck fasteners create a beautiful-looking deck that is virtually blemish free. The fastener’s stainless steel screw features a black head which blends with the shadows between deck boards—giving the appearance of a fastener-free decking surface.

Barefoot-friendly

Fasteners are minimally exposed to provide a smooth, eye-catching, “barefoot-friendly” deck surface.

Compatibility

Compatible with composite decking products that have a 5/32” edge groove.

Quick and Easy Installation

The Equator composite decking hidden fastener fits into the groove on each side of the deck board to eliminate pre-drilling and can be quickly installed quick and easy.

Eliminates Guesswork

Automatically gaps at the proper spacing to make installation even easier.

Versatile

Equator hidden fasteners are designed for use with Latitudes slotted decking or other composite deck boards with a 5/32” groove to accommodate hidden fasteners.

Unique Design

The Equator fastener’s Y-shaped “gap wings” let boards expand and contract to prevent buckling. The patented fastener’s unique design helps deliver automatic, consistent alignment of deck boards for striking results and considerable savings.
