As with any power tool, there are a few basic things to remember. Symptom Solution Screws won’t drive. They spin for a second, then lay over on their side. Providing little or no penetration. This is the most commonly reported issue. Make sure the screw gun is not set to reverse, if it is, set to forward (indicated by arrow located near screw gun trigger). Screws won’t drive completely. They go down about halfway then the bit spins out. Check that you are using the correct bit for the type of screws being driven. Check the bit for wear as it may need replacing with a new one (a free bit is provided with every box of screws). Catalogue C-FIXINGS-13 © 2013 SIMPSON STRONG-TIE ® If you hear a “clacking” sound whilst driving screws, apply more pressure. Screws are almost completely driven but won’t countersink fully. Check the depth adjustment on the attachment, reset if necessary. You may have missed the substrate (typically occurs in flooring applications if you miss the joist). Screws don’t advance properly, causing the tool to jam. Ensure that the screw is strip is inserted correctly (pointed end first). Engage screw gun trigger before nose piece makes contact with the surface. Lift the tool completely off the surface after driving each screw don’t drag screw strips along the work surface as you move along to the next position. Ensure the feed pawl lever is intact and the feed lever is engaged. Correct Bit Use Using the correct driving bit is necessary. The free bit(s) included in each box of Quik Drive® screws should drive the entire box. Variations in materials and driving technique can cause excessive wear so additional bit packs are available for purchase. Reference the description on the bit sticker in your box of screws or the screw box label to ensure correct selection. BIT2SUE and BIT3SUE undersized are suitable for use with galvanised screws..

HOW SELF-DRILLING SCREWS WORK When selecting a self-drilling screw it is important to select a suitable point for the material thickness. Three key things to be aware of: 1. Drill Flute: The height of the flutes determines the material thickness which the screw can penetrate. Since the flutes remove debris during drilling, if they become completely embedded in the material, debris will become trapped in the flutes and cutting action will cease. This will cause the point to heat up and break. 2. Point Length: The unthreaded portion of the point, known as the pilot section, must be long enough to completely penetrate the material before the threads engage. Since the threads advance faster than the drilling process, if they engage before drilling is done the fastener can bind and break. 3. Fastening Thicker Material to Metal: When fastening thicker materials such as wood to metal, it is necessary to use a fastener with “wings” on the shaft. The wings will enlarge the hole in the fastened material so that the threads can pass through without binding or damage. Once the wings contact the metal they break away and the threads engage. Head Threads Wings Pilot Section Flute Point Wing Reamer Wings ream hole larger than threads so threads do not engage wood. Wings then break off when they hit steel, then threads engage.

This material provides very good corrosion resistance. No visible sign of surface red rust at 1000 hours of salt spray test. N2000® Mechanically Galvanised: Mechanical galvanisation provides a protective zinc nickel alloy coating over base metal. The coating is applied by mechanically tumbling base metal with non-metallic impact beads and zinc powder. Less than 10% surface red rust at 1,000 hours of salt spray test. Quik Guard®: is a proprietary double barrier coating that provides a level of corrosion protection suitable for many preservative-treated wood applications. Less than 10% surface red rust at 950 hours of salt spray test. Yellow Zinc Dichromate: Coating offers minimum amount of corrosion protection and is intended for dry, noncorrosive applications only. Clear Zinc: Coating offers minimum amount of corrosion protection and is intended for dry, non-corrosive applications only. Grey Phosphate: Coating offers minimum amount of corrosion protection and is intended for dry, non-corrosive applications only. General Note About Salt Spray Testing: Salt spray testing is in accordance with ASTM B117, is not intended to represent real world corrosive performance of screw coatings. It should only be used for comparative evaluation between like products. Many variables can affect the outcome of the salt spray test, such as screw features, coating types, post coating processes etc. 25 Quik Drive Stainless Steel Fixings Collated andand Corrosion Resistant Fastenings DRYWALL DWC (Dry Wall Coarse) EN 14566 • Drywall to wood applications Item Reference BIT2PE Grey Phosphate finish.

For more detailed technical assistance, please contact the Simpson Strong-Tie® technical support team on Catalogue C-FIXINGS-13 © 2013 SIMPSON STRONG-TIE ® 01827 255600 or visit www.strongtie.co.uk. • Cladding fixings should preferably be of stainless steel due to their inherent corrosion protection and the fact that the colour of the head will weather to a similar colour to untreated cladding. • Galvanised or coated steel screws are not preferred as the coating on the head can be damaged during driving which can result in subsequent rust staining. This is especially important for unfinished cladding boards as there is no possibility of replacement of the protection during coating of the boards. • Exceptions to the above would be when cladding is fixed to galvanised steel members. In this case it is necessary to avoid galvanic corrosion due to dissimilar metals. This can be avoided by fixing battens to the steel members using coated steel screws, then fixing the cladding to the battens using stainless steel screws. • Fasteners should be driven slightly below the surface to allow for shrinkage in board thickness thus preventing the nail heads from standing proud. • Nail penetration into battens should be twice the thickness of the board for ring shank nails. • Proprietary clips are available to connect the cladding to the battens. • Angle brackets are available to connect the vertical battens directly to the wall without the need for horizontal battens. This system creates a zone for insulation and/or ventilation between the wall and the cladding. An example of this system is Simpson Strong-Tie’s ABC Cladding Bracket. • A Structural Engineer should be involved in the design of the cladding to ensure the correct type and number of fasteners and brackets are used to adequately support the loads from self weight and wind. 35 Quik Drive and Stainless Steel Fixings ANNULAR RING SHANK NAILS Ring Shank Nail Annular Ring Shank : 305 (A2) or 316 (A4) Stainless Steel Diamond patterned head blends with wood texture, diffracts sunlight and accepts surface finishes.

Fastening is done into the side of the board, leaving a fastener-free deck surface. The EB-TY is a polypropylene biscuit fastener that fits into a slot the builder cuts into the edge of the deck boards with a standard biscuit joiner. The EB-TY fasteners are inserted and fastened with a screw driven into the joist. Nesting each successive board against the EB-TY automatically ensures consistent spacing and uniform height. • • • • • Easy to install since all fastening is done from the top side Affords easier deck resurfacing since nail heads are eliminated from the deck surface Formed from long lasting polypropylene to last the life of the deck Stainless-steel #7 trim-head screws included Each EB-TY package includes installation instructions and enough EB-TY fasteners, screws and tapered Ipê wood plugs to install 100 square feet of decking (175-Pack quantity assumes 6" wide boards, installed perpendicular to joists spaced 16" on center) Tapered Ipê Wood Plugs see next page Working from left to right, compare the information in the columns to your application to select the correct EB-TY for the job.

Decking can be grooved the entire length of the board. •Always butt boards over a joist. One method for installing butt ends is to cut the keel off the bottom of an EB-TY, slot the board ends, and insert the EB-TY. Another, more reliable method is to face-screw and plug.

Deck boards Slots cut with biscuit joiner EB-TY biscuit fastener Floor joist Second deck board fastened with EB-TY and construction adhesive applied to top of floor joist Installation Process ! 1. Fasten the first board using construction adhesive and screws, then cut slots where the board intersects joists using a 5⁄32" router bit or plate joiner (biscuit cutter #20) and install the first EB-TY fasteners. Do not use construction adhesive with composite decking (see note on the right). 2. Cut slots in the next board where it intersects the joists. Construction adhesive is not recommended when installing composite deck boards as some adhesives will have an adverse reaction upon contact with certain plastics. 3. Apply a bead of construction adhesive to the top of each joist and install the new board so that the slots fit over the EB-TY fasteners installed in the first board. 4. Insert EB-TY fasteners into each slot in the exposed edge of the board and fasten with screws. Bring the schematic below to your lumber yard. They will use it to pre-groove your decking material to accept EB-TY fasteners. 5. Repeat the process until all boards are installed. Refer to the installation instructions (included) for more information. Consult composite decking manufacturer’s or wood supplier’s installation instructions for deck height requirements and deck board spacing. 0.500" 0.163" Pre-grooving the entire length of the deck board is a time-saving alternative to individual grooves made with a router or plate joiner. Some types of composite lumber are available with grooves as an added feature. Have your lumber yard use the schematic on the right to pregroove boards to accept EB-TY fasteners. Cut groove at center of material thickness *For model numbers TP015 and 316TT screws are to be driven at a 90° angle to the board face.

Do not wear FASTENER CORROSION INFORMATION Understanding the Issues Metal fasteners will corrode and may lose load-carrying capacity when installed in corrosive environments or exposed to corrosive materials. There are many environments and materials which may cause corrosion including ocean salt air, fire-retardants, fumes, fertilizers, preservative-treated wood, dissimilar metals, and other corrosive elements. The many variables make it impossible to accurately predict if, or when, significant corrosion will begin or reach a critical level. This relative uncertainty makes it crucial that specifiers and users be knowledgeable of the potential risks and select a product coating or metal suitable for the intended use. It is also important that regular maintenance and periodic inspections are performed, especially for outdoor applications. When outdoor, it is common to see some corrosion, even stainless steel can corrode. If significant corrosion is apparent or suspected, then wood, fasteners and connectors should be inspected by a professional engineer or contractor and may need to be replaced. Recently, pressure-treated wood formulations have changed. Due to the many different pressure treatment formulations, retention levels, moisture content, and because the formulations may vary, understanding which connectors and fasteners to use with these materials is a complex task. It is important to educate yourself by reviewing technical literature on the topic and to get the latest information by the manufacturer. Stainless Steel is always the most effective solution to corrosion risk. To best serve our customers, Simpson Strong-Tie is evaluating the options to identify the safest and most cost-effective solutions.
