## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I use this for deck mate screws?**
A: I am not sure about the head size of deck mate screws.  The Smart-Bit Pro Plug system is designed for stainless steel screws with a relatively small head, so if deck mate has a normal larger size head it won't work.

**Q: what are the dimensions of the plug hole?**
A: The plug hole diameter is 8.5mm (approx. 5/16"), the plug hole depth is 8.5mm (approx. 5/16"). Drill bit diameter is 3.2mm (approx. 1/8").  The overall hole depth is 38mm (approx. 1-1/2") which includes the countersink portion.   Online Construction Products

**Q: Will this work witn 3/8 plugs**
A: No, the ProPlug tool is part of the ProPlug System and is designed to work with ProPlug plugs which are 5/16" diameter.

**Q: need to cut 3/4" D x 1 1/4" dpth flat bottom hole with 1/4 pilot drill.  What product to buy?**
A: Not an easy question.  This part won't do that.  May need to do 2 steps with pilot hole and then the 3/4" hole.  The make stops for drill bits which may do what you are looking for.  The stop is just a ring with a hex screw in it that tightens to the drill bit.  but at 3/4:  it would be pretty big.  Alternate is if you use a "door" drill which just cuts a hole for doornob.  For this, the stop item may still work, and put on center hole bit.  Then you would have to clear out the inside.  I have a mill that would do this ,  but that may not be an option for you.  Sorry I couldn't help more.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must Have tool for nw deck
*by E***S on December 18, 2025*

A must have when doing a trex deck. Saved time and made the project easier to accomplish.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Good But Not Good
*by A***R on March 20, 2020*

As others have said, the drill bit is junk & breaks easily. Unfortunately, a good job ends far too quickly. Cool off hot bit with water between drills but drill bit will still break, poor quality for sure. When it breaks below the counter sink bit there's no getting it out to replace with a new one. I bought 6 of these for a job that should have taken one or two. As others have sad, instead of going into debt over these things pre-drill with a quality 1/8" bit and use counter sink to finish the hole for screw or else you'll go broke buying new ones. Good tool but cheap bits!
