I used 150 of these for a 12x38 deck I built.
Great material to work with. Cuts easily with carbide blade.
Chamfer the ends after cutting prior to final install to remove the burr. Also, wax the top end with paraffin wax to make install easier. “Wobble” the bit when removing from the drill hole to open it up a bit. The fit is VERY tight if you don’t do these things. I made a template I clamped on to the top and bottom rails to get spacing correct. Worked perfectly.
Otherwise, highly recommended. Looks great installed, too!
