S-94048A221 Length 2" ASME B18.2.1, ASTM A307, SAE J429 Wood Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with hot-dipped galvanized steel coating for long-lasting performance in humid or outdoor wood applications
• Enhanced torque transmission through external hex drive design prevents stripping and ensures secure fastening
• Optimal thread engagement with thread forming design creates strong, permanent connections in wood materials
• Reduced splitting risk with partially threaded shank that minimizes stress concentration in wood fibers
• Industry-standard compatibility meeting ASME B18.2.1, ASTM A307, and SAE J429 specifications for reliable performance
• Environmental compliance assurance with RoHS 3 and REACH regulations for sustainable procurement
• Quick installation with pointed tip and right-hand threading for efficient driving in wood substrates

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These hot-dipped galvanized steel wood screws deliver exceptional value in construction and woodworking applications where corrosion resistance and structural integrity are paramount. The thread forming design eliminates the need for pre-drilling in many wood types, creating stronger thread engagement than conventional cutting threads. The external hex drive system provides superior torque transmission compared to Phillips or slotted drives, reducing cam-out incidents during high-torque installation. With a 1/4" diameter and 2" length, these partially threaded screws offer optimal clamping force distribution, preventing wood splitting while maintaining secure fastening in decking, framing, and structural wood assemblies. The 10 threads per inch configuration ensures rapid installation without compromising holding power in both softwoods and hardwoods.

Specification Summary & Compliance

Manufactured to exacting ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standards with Class 2A thread tolerances for consistent performance. These wood screws comply with ASTM A307 for mechanical properties and SAE J429 for material specifications. The product meets RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) compliance for restricted substances and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations regarding chemical safety. The hot-dipped galvanized coating provides superior corrosion protection compared to electroplated alternatives, ensuring long-term reliability in exterior wood fastening applications.
