Description

SPAX® T-Star Washer Head construction fasteners with HCR® coating are intended for wood-to-wood connections in exterior structural applications when attaching treated lumber components. These fasteners are designed with a low profile large diameter wafer head for applications requiring additional surface area under the head for superior pull-down force. Ideal for deck ledger attachment and multi-ply beam applications.

Material & Coating

Cold-rolled “carbon steel” wire heat treated to Grade 5 durability and plated with an HCR® (High Corrosion Resistance) double barrier coating. “HCR” is tested and recognized for use in ground contact pressure treated lumber for exterior, freshwater general construction applications (e.g. AWPA UC1-UC4A, UCFA).
