UltraShield Starter Clips (TC-5) | Composite Decking Starter Fixings – Pack of 10
The UltraShield Starter Clips (TC-5) are designed to securely fix the first row of grooved edge or bullnose decking boards in place, ensuring a flush, hidden start to your composite decking installation. These clips are essential for creating a seamless, screw-free finish along the outer edge of your deck — especially when using bullnose boards for steps or borders.
Made from stainless steel for long-term durability, each clip is easy to install and ensures that the first board sits firmly in position before continuing with standard hidden fasteners (like TC-1 or TC-2).
