I believe Robertson but maybe Phillips. I can say with certainty that you won’t want to reuse the old screws so you could just use a drill from the inside to remove if need be. You will likely want to drill a slightly oversized hole in the teak legs and plug each with a hardwood dowel. Also I recall having to punch holes in the butyl tape on reassembly in order to allow the new ss screws to pass through without twisting the tape. I had 2 helpers when i put the handrails back on and I still have not put the teak plugs in the interior hand rails. Every so often I tighten the screws down a little more and the butyl compresses and goes beyond the teak. That is easily removed with a jack knife
