DeckWise® Hidden Deck Fasteners

DeckWise® Ipe Clip® Hidden Deck Fasteners are for more than just Ipe hardwood decking. These hidden deck fasteners have been the standard for hardwood grooved decking since the year 2000. Fastening all sorts of hardwood species, thermal woods, and composite deck boards.

These deck clip fasteners are unlike most all-metal hidden deck fasteners, which can react with wood causing staining. The Ipe Clip® deck fastener is molded of a malleable plastic polymer resin coating (further adding UV & chemical resistant qualities), allowing for the natural expansion/contraction of deck boards.

Manufactured with a stainless-steel reinforcement insert, they are tested to be up to 3x stronger than other hidden deck/patio fastener systems. The unique and patented design offers quick and easy installation, while giving both do-it-yourselfers and professional decking contractors a smooth, fastener-free surface their customers ask for. The rigid stainless-steel insert firmly holds decking to joists eliminating decking screws from pulling through as the deck material expands.

Offered in three color choices, the plastic resin shell also camouflages and conceals the edge-mount deck fastener between the board gaps for a true “hidden fastener” look. Available in Hardwood Brown, Composite Grey or Shadowline Black to match the desired color of your exotic hardwoods, thermally modified wood, PVC or composite decking.

Whether installing air or kiln dried hardwood, thermally modified softwood, composite or PVC decking, we have the appropriate fastener with three board gap spacing options. Choose from a 3/32” (Extreme) spacer leg for kiln dried wood or go with a larger gap for air dried and composite deck boards with our 5/32” (Extreme S) or 1/4” (Extreme KD) spacer legs.
