LOG & TIMBER SCREWS
Strong-Drive® SDWS TIMBER Screw (Interior Grade)
The Strong-Drive SDWS Timber (Interior Grade) screw – formerly, the SDWS Log screw – is a structural wood screw available in a variety of lengths and is designed for cross-laminated timber assemblies, mass timber construction, log-home construction, ledgers and general interior applications.
Features:
SawTooth™ point ensures fast starts, reduces installation torque and eliminates the need for predrilling in most applications
Serrated thread reduces splitting and damage
Low-profile, large-diameter washer head with nibs provides maximum bearing area and makes countersinking easy
6-lobe, T40 drive provides positive engagement that makes the screw easy to drive and improves bit life (replacement driver bit: BIT40T-134)
Size identification on all Simpson Strong-Tie screws
US Patent: 9,523,383
Strong-Drive® SDWS TIMBER Screw (Exterior Grade)
Designed to provide an easy-to-install, high-strength alternative to through-bolting and traditional lag screws. The Strong-Drive SDWS Timber Screw (Exterior Grade) is ideal for the contractor and do-it-yourselfer alike. It is code listed under IAPMO UES ER-192 and meets 2015 and 2018 IRC® and IBC®code requirements for several common wood framing applications.
Features:
SawTooth™,
Bold thread design provides superior holding power,
Underhead nibs offer greater control when seating the head
Large low-profile washer head provides maximum bearing area (0.75" head dia.)
Size identification on all SDWS screw heads
6-lobe T40 drive provides positive engagement that makes the screw easy to drive and improves bit life (replacement driver bit — BIT40T-134-RC)
U.S. Patent 9,523,383
Strong-Drive® SD CONNECTOR Screw
The Strong-DriveSD Connector screw is specifically designed to replace nails in certain Simpson Strong-Tieconnectors 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.
Strong-Drive® SDWH TIMBER-HEX Screw
Ideal for structural and general-purpose fastening applications where a hex-head drive is preferred. The Strong-Drive SDWH Timber-Hex screw is ideal for the contractor and do-it-yourselfer alike. It is code listed under IAPMO-UES ER-192 and meets 2015 and 2018 IRC® and IBC® code requirements for several common wood and engineered wood framing applications.
Features:
SawTooth™ point ensures fast starts, reduces installation torque and eliminates the need for predrilling in most applications,
Bold thread design provides superior holding power,
Underhead nibs that offer greater control when seating the head,
Large washer head provides maximum bearing area (0.64" head dia.),
Size identification on all SDWH screw heads,
5/16" hex drive (replacement driver bit — BITHEXR516-134),
U.S. Patent 9,523,383
Double-barrier coating provides corrosion resistance equivalent to hot-dip galvanization, making it suitable for certain exterior and preservative-treated wood applications, as described in the evaluation report.
TBS EVOwood screw
The TBS EVO wood screw is the structural screw for use outdoors in service class 3 and in class C4 atmospheric corrosion conditions.
The flange head serves as washer and ensures high tensile strength.
TBS FLANGE HEAD SCREW
TBS, the structural wood screw with integrated washer for exceptional tensile strength.
The TBS flange head screw is ideal for fastening joists to sill beams to achieve high wind uplift resistance.
The flange head guarantees excellent tensile strength which means the use of additional lateral fastening systems can be avoided. The asymmetric “umbrella” of TBS wood screws guarantees better wood pull-through.
Made of carbon steel with bright zinc plated, it is perfect for use with solid timber, glulam, wood-based panels, high-density woods, CLT and LVL.
CATCH TIGHTENING TOOL
CATCH is a tightening tool developed for quick, safe and effortless tightening of long wood screws with a simple screwdriver.
The head of the screw is firmly attached to CATCH so that the bit will not slip out of the screw head when using the screwdriver.
