Paslode 650197 30 Degree Galvanized Connector Nails

Product Description

The PASLODE 650197 is a box of 30-degree metal connector nails designed for use with compatible pneumatic framing and connector nailers. These nails are mechanically galvanized and heat treated, making them suitable for structural connector applications where corrosion resistance and shear strength are required. Mechanically galvanized fasteners provide a zinc coating that protects against rust in interior and exposed framing conditions. Heat treatment adds hardness and durability to the shank, supporting reliable performance in structural connections. These nails are installed by qualified carpenters, framers, and construction professionals working with joist hangers, post caps, and similar metal connectors.

The 650197 is intended for use in wood-framing applications where metal connector plates and hangers are fastened to dimensional lumber. Common install scenarios include floor joist systems, roof framing tie-downs, and ledger connections using metal hardware. The 30-degree magazine angle suits a range of nailer configurations used in residential and light commercial framing. The mechanically galvanized finish makes these nails appropriate for treated lumber contact per typical building code requirements, though installers should verify specific project specifications with the engineer of record.

Key Features

• 30-degree collation angle compatible with standard connector nailers
• Mechanically galvanized coating for corrosion resistance in framing applications
• Heat treated for increased shank hardness and structural performance
• Designed specifically for use with metal connector plates, joist hangers, and post caps
• Suitable for use with treated lumber where galvanized fasteners are specified

Compatibility

Designed as OEM-style connector nails for use with 30-degree pneumatic nailers compatible with metal connector nail applications.

Installation Notes

These nails are installed using a pneumatic nailer set to the appropriate 30-degree magazine configuration. Disconnect the nailer from its air supply before loading or clearing jams. Verify that nail length and gauge meet the connector manufacturer and engineer specifications for the specific hanger or plate being fastened. Follow applicable building codes and connector manufacturer load tables when selecting fastener quantity and placement.
