Simpson Strong-tie SD10212R100-R Hex Structural Screw 100ct

Product Description

The SIMPSON STRONG-TIE SD10212R100-R is a #10 x 2.5-inch hex-head structural connector screw sold in a 100-count box. It is engineered for use with Simpson Strong-Tie structural connectors, with an optimized shank geometry designed to fit the fastener hole patterns in those connectors. The 1/4-inch hex drive eliminates cam-out and resists head stripping under high-torque drive conditions. Patented serrated threads reduce driving torque for faster, more controlled installation. A mechanically galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance for interior and most exterior applications. A hex bit is included with each box.

This screw is used in residential and light commercial framing and structural connector applications. Typical installation scenarios include attaching joist hangers, post bases, beam seats, hold-downs, straps, and other structural hardware to dimensional lumber and engineered wood members. The sharp point enables fast starts without pre-drilling in standard framing lumber. It is installed by framing carpenters, structural contractors, and experienced tradespeople working with Simpson Strong-Tie connector hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified framing or structural contractors using a 1/4-inch hex-drive bit and an appropriate variable-speed drill or impact driver. Follow the connector manufacturer load tables and fastener schedules for required screw count and pattern. Confirm local building code requirements, including applicable provisions of the International Building Code or IRC, before beginning structural fastening work. Do not substitute this screw in applications requiring a different length, diameter, or coating without verifying structural equivalency.
