spelling isnt the best. redox nails the ones that look like a galvinized nail but have the spirals in them. woodex the sq drive outdoor deck screws
years ago we switched to building our decks using the woodex sq drive screws.
recently we had a homeowner request the redox saying he was told by the lumber yard and another builder theat the redox are better.
so we will bid the job using redox as requested
I have had the redox and thw woodex hold just fine. Of course the screws are slower and a pain if you mess up a head. As far as removal at times of installation the screws back out clean, years later if you need to pull them and the heads are bunged up, they are as much as a pain as any other.
any pros and cons out there to one over the other

Redox=Ardox?
Woodex square drive screws=Robertson drive..That "star" thingy in them other screws is a Phillips drive
I use robertson for everything, I find Phillips strip much easier. Ardox nails do hold better, but unless you're in a tornado/hurricane area I don't think it's an issue.
