Concealed fastening system — no visible screw heads, no paint touch-up
The Restoration Millwork® Cortex Hidden Fastening System by CertainTeed is the professional finishing solution for PVC trim installations that demand a clean, seamless look. Each package contains screws, matching cellular PVC plugs, and setting tools — the plugs snap over screw heads and blend into the trim face, eliminating visible fasteners without any paint touch-up. Available in Smooth and Wood Grain plug finishes to match the trim face, with 2" screws for 3/4" (1×) trim and 2¾" screws for 5/4" trim. Choose 250 LF contractor packs or 50 LF starter packs. Replacement plug packs (40 LF) are also available. Compatible with all Restoration Millwork® PVC trim products.
