S-94048A324 Length 10" ASME B18.2.1, ASTM A307, SAE J429 Wood Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Exceptional corrosion resistance with hot-dipped galvanized steel coating for long-lasting performance in outdoor or high-moisture wood applications.
• Superior torque transmission via the external hex head design, preventing cam-out and ensuring secure, efficient installation with standard tools.
• Enhanced pull-out resistance from the partially threaded shank, which concentrates holding power while reducing wood splitting in heavy timber.
• Reliable thread engagement through the thread-forming tapping method, creating strong, permanent threads in wood without pre-drilling in many cases.
• Heavy-duty load capacity supported by the substantial 3/8" diameter and 10" length, ideal for structural wood connections and framing.
• Broad compliance assurance meeting ASME, ASTM, and SAE standards for dimensional consistency and mechanical properties in professional use.
• Environmental and safety compliance with RoHS 3 and REACH regulations, ensuring safe use in regulated industrial and construction environments.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These hot-dipped galvanized steel wood screws are engineered to address critical challenges in heavy-duty wood construction, such as deck building, timber framing, and outdoor structural projects. The zinc coating provides a thick, sacrificial layer that combats rust and corrosion, significantly extending service life in exposed conditions. The hex head design allows for high-torque application, ensuring tight clamping force without stripping, while the partial threading minimizes stress concentration in the wood, reducing the risk of splitting in dense or treated lumber. The thread forming feature displaces material to create strong, load-bearing threads, enhancing pull-out strength for secure, long-term fastening in demanding applications where vibration or load shifts occur.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This 3/8" x 10" wood screw features a right-hand thread with approximately 7 threads per inch and a minimum thread length of 4". It conforms to ASME B18.2.1 for dimensional standards, ASTM A307 for material grade, and SAE J429 for mechanical properties. The product is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring it meets current environmental and safety requirements for industrial and construction use.
