S-94048A260 Length 2 1/2" ASME B18.2.1, ASTM A307, SAE J429 Wood Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with hot-dipped galvanized steel construction for long-lasting performance in outdoor and humid environments
• Maximum torque application through external hex head design that prevents cam-out and enables high-tightening force
• Enhanced pull-out resistance with thread forming tapping method that creates stronger threads in wood without pre-drilling
• Optimal material displacement from pointed tip and partial threading for reduced wood splitting and secure fastening
• 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 standards for sustainable procurement
• Versatile length options with 2-1/2" size providing ample penetration for various wood thicknesses

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These hot-dipped galvanized steel wood screws deliver exceptional engineering value for demanding wood construction applications. The hex head design combined with external drive style ensures maximum torque transfer without stripping, critical for structural assemblies and heavy-duty framing. The thread forming technology creates permanent, high-strength threads in wood substrates, eliminating the need for tapping operations while providing superior resistance to vibration loosening. With partial threading and 9 threads per inch configuration, these fasteners optimize material engagement while minimizing wood splitting in both softwoods and hardwoods. The robust 5/16" diameter and 2-1/2" length make them ideal for deck construction, timber framing, outdoor furniture, and structural wood connections where corrosion resistance and long-term durability are paramount.
