Simpson SDWS16400Q 0.160 in. x 4 in. Strong-Drive SDWS Framing Screws Quik Guard Coating 750 Qty
The Simpson Strong-Tie Strong-Drive line of structural fasteners now includes the SDWS Framing screw, designed and load-rated for replacing 16d, 10d and 8d nails in framing applications. The SDWS Framing screw is 0.160" in diameter and superior to nails in holding power and pull-out resistance. It is code listed under IAPMO UES ER-192 and meets 2009 and 2012 IRC and IBC code requirements for several common wood framing applications. The screw has a SawTooth Type-17 tip with serrated threads that makes for fast installations with reduced torque without predrilling, and its specially designed head countersinks easily to provide a clean, flush finish. The T25 bit holds the 6-lobe recess tightly, reducing cam-out and head stripping.
