Simpson Strong-Tie Strong-Drive SD CONNECTOR SS Screw
The stainless-steel Strong-Drive SD Connector SS screw (SD SS) is specifically designed to replace nails in certain Simpson Strong-Tie® stainless-steel connectors. The load-rated SD SS 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 SS screw exceed those of 10d common nails. In addition, the Type 316 stainless steel provides excellent corrosion resistance appropriate for severe-exposure environments.
