Notes:1.Outdoor environments are generally more corrosive to steel. If you choose to use ZMAX® or HDG finish or stainless steel material on an outdoor project, you should periodically inspect your connectors and fasteners or have a professionalinspection performed. Regular maintenance, including water-proofing of the wood used in your outdoor project is also a good practice.2.Coatings Available:2.1.ZMAX: Galvanized (G185) 1.85 oz. of zinc per square foot of surface area. (hot-dip galvanized per ASTM A653 total both sides). These products require hot-dip galvanized fasteners (fasteners which meet the specifications of ASTM A153).2.2.HDG - Hot Dip Galvanized: Products are hot-dip galvanized after fabrication (14 ga. and thicker). The coating weight increases with material thickness. The minimum specified coating weight is 2.0 oz. per square foot. (per ASTM A123 totalboth sides). These products require hot-dip galvanized fasteners (fasteners which meet the specifications of ASTM A153).2.3.SS - Stainless Steel: Connectors are manufactured from Type 316L stainless steel, and provide greater durability against corrosion. Stainless-steel nails are required with stainless-steel products, and are available from Simpson Strong-Tie.3.When using stainless steel connectors, use stainless steel fasteners. When applications allow the use of ZMAX/HDG galvanized connectors, use HDG fasteners that meet the specifications of ASTM A153 or equivalent coating offered onSimpson Strong-Tie fasteners.4.Due to many variables involved with outdoor construction, Simpson Strong-Tie cannot provide estimates on service life of connectors, anchors or fasteners.5.To obtain optimal performance from Simpson Strong-Tie products, the products must be installed properly and used in accordance with the installation instructions and design limits provided by Simpson Strong-Tie.6.All installation notes and guidelines within the current Wood Construction Connectors catalog shall apply for the connectors, anchors, and fasteners shown.7.Simpson Strong-Tie reserves the right to change the specifications, design and models shown without notice or liability for such changes.8.Simpson Strong-Tie does not guarantee the performance or safety of products that are modified, improperly installed or not used in accordance with the design.9.All references to bolts or machine bolts (MB) are structural quality through bolts (not lag screws or carriage bolts) equal to or better than ASTM A307, grade A. Bolt holes shall be at least a minimum 1/32" and no more than a maximum of 1/16"larger than the bolt diameter per 2005 NDS Section 11.1.2.10.Unless noted otherwise, all references to standard cut washers refer to Type A plain washers (W) conforming to the dimensions shown in ASME B18.22.1 for the appropriate rod sizes.11.Unless stated otherwise, Simpson Strong-Tie cannot and does not make any representation regarding the suitability of use or load-carrying capacities of connectors installed with improper fasteners.0.162"0.148"0.162"0.161"0.131"0.131"0.161"0.148"0.131"0.131"0.25"16dCommon10dCommonSDScrew#10x2½16dx2½SDScrew#9x2½8dCommonSDScrew#10x1½10dx1½SDScrew#9x1½8dx1½SDS Screw¼" x variouslengths3½32½1½0Fastener Notes:1.The specified quantity, type and size of fastener must be installed in the correct holes on the connector to achievepublished loads.
