Simpson Strong-Tie SD9212R100-R - #9 x 2-1/2 Inch Strong Drive SD Connector Screws - 1/4 Inch Hex Head, Galvanized Coating, Hex Bit Included, for Construction, Home Improvement (Box of 100)

The Strong-Drive SD Connector screw is specifically designed to replace nails in certain Simpson Strong-Tie connectors and is the only screw approved for that application. The load-rated SD screw has been tested and approved for use in many popular Simpson Strong-Tie products. In certain applications screws are easier and more convenient to install than nails, and the single-fastener load values achieved by the SD screw exceed those of typical 10d common or 16d common nails. In addition, the galvanized coating makes the SD screw ideal for interior and most exterior conditions.

• NAIL REPLACEMENT: The Strong-Drive SD Connector #9 x 2-1/2 inch screw is specifically designed to replace nails in certain Simpson Strong-Tie connectors and is the only screw tested and approved for that application. The single-fastener load capacity of the #9 SD exceeds the capacity of a 10d common nail.
• Type 316 Stainless Steel: The Strong-Drive SD Connector screw is made from Type 316 stainless steel that provides superior corrosion resistance for long-lasting durability. This finish withstands harsh conditions, making it ideal for both interior and most exterior applications where protection against rust is essential.
• EASY IDENTIFICATION: Designed for quick and easy use, the SD Connector screw includes a 1/4" hex head with a 0.370"-diameter integrated washer, stamped with the Simpson Strong-Tie sign and fastener size. This design simplifies installation and helps you quickly identify the correct screw post installation.
