TimberTech® is focused on fasteners. Opt for the best fastening systems to install your deck. These high-quality fasteners give decks added strength and integrity for years to come. Square-shoulder boards allow for top-down fastening, while grooved boards are designed for hidden clip fasteners. CONCEALoc® is a hidden fastener system that can be installed pneumatically with the FastenMaster® TigerClaw Gun or manually using a drill. CONCEALoc® provides a fastener-free surface.
Designed exclusively for TimberTech® grooved deck boards.
CONCEALoc Hidden Fasteners were designed exclusively to install TimberTech® grooved and square shouldered boards.
Tools Required: safety glasses, router with slot cutting blade, drill
Always be sure to check and cut the factory cut ends of all boards to ensure they are square.
• In areas with obstructed airflow such as roofs and on-grade applications, a minimum of 1½ in., sleeper system, is required.
• Sleeper system must be supported by and connected to the substructure over which the deck is built.
• To further minimize expansion and contraction, proper ventilation and airflow should be considered.
• On-grade decks must have additional provisions for drainage beneath the deck structure.
• For best practices, decking should not be installed in applications where ventilation and airflow cannot be achieved.
• Do not use CONCELoc Hidden Fasteners or L-Bracket for stair installation.
