Simpson Strong Tie 10DHDG-R Hdg Nail 10d 50ct Box of 12

Product Description

The SIMPSON STRONG TIE 10DHDG-R is a hot-dip galvanized common nail designed for use with Simpson Strong-Tie structural connectors and hardware. These 10d nails are manufactured to meet the load and shear values specified in Simpson Strong-Tie connector installation instructions, making them a direct fit for joist hangers, post caps, beam seats, and similar hardware. The hot-dip galvanization process provides a thick, bonded zinc coating that resists corrosion in treated lumber and exterior environments. Licensed contractors, framers, and structural carpenters rely on this nail for code-compliant connector installations.

This nail is suited for residential and light commercial framing applications where structural metal connectors require a specified fastener. Typical installations include floor systems, roof framing, deck ledgers, and wall sheathing connections where Simpson Strong-Tie hardware is specified by the engineer of record or building plans. The 10d designation corresponds to a standard common nail size widely specified in construction documents. Sold in boxes of 12, each box containing 50 nails, for a total of 600 nails per order unit.

Key Features

• Hot-dip galvanized coating for corrosion resistance in exterior and treated-lumber applications
• 10d common nail size engineered to meet Simpson Strong-Tie connector load specifications
• 50 nails per box, sold in units of 12 boxes
• Consistent shank diameter and head geometry for reliable seating in connector flanges
• Compatible with code-required fastener schedules for structural connector installations

Compatibility

Designed for use with Simpson Strong-Tie structural connectors that specify 10d hot-dip galvanized nails in their installation requirements. Refer to the specific connector's load table and fastener schedule to confirm this nail meets the required specification for your application.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed contractor or qualified framer following the connector manufacturer's fastener schedule and applicable building code requirements. Drive nails fully into the connector holes without over-driving, which can distort the connector flange and reduce the rated load capacity. In corrosive environments or where ACQ or CA treated lumber is used, hot-dip galvanized fasteners are typically required by code. Always consult local building codes and the engineer of record when structural fastener specifications are involved.
