Hi Mark,

Thank you for you question.

Yes, you are correct. This implies that you attach the clip from the side. However, you do not pound directly on the clip. The clip is first put into an installation block (included in all boxes and buckets).

Question on the Tiger Claw Pro Clips, just as clarification as I sell the AZEK decking in the HD Ohio markets. Above, it was mentioned that this is a “pound-in” fastener. Practically, this just means you’re hammering into the side with a normal hammer, or does this mean something else? I have not seen the clips aside from the e-representation but we can get the customer these clips via our Pro Desks.

Hey Bill,

Thanks for the question.

The ProClip (which is manufactured by Tiger Claw) is a “pound-in” fastener that is most similar to the Tiger Claw TC-2 (for softwoods), TC-3 (composites) and TC-4 (for hardwoods). Tiger Claw also makes fasteners for grooved decking. The grooved decking fasteners are installed in a different method than that of the ProClip.

You can learn more about the ProClip on our website:

I hadn’t heard of the Kreg system before so I did a little research. It appears to be a jig system where you toe-screw the decking. In this system there is no hidden fastener, just the screw.

Hope this helps!

What is the difference between the ProClip and the Tiger Claw fastening system? How do these systems rate with other hidden fastening methods such as the system put out by Kreg?

Hi Sammy,

Thanks for the question regarding the new Azek colors.

I just spoke with Tiger Claw regarding your question. For the new 2010 colors, including Redland Rose, you should use the Tiger Claw TC-3S.

There is a link to the TC-3S on our product website in the original post.
