The Simpson Strong-Drive TB Wood-to-Steel Screw (Collated) - #14 x 2-3/8 in., N2000 Mechanically Galvanized, 750-Quantity is a structural screw engineered by Simpson for fastening wood to hot-rolled steel. Built for use with the Simpson Strong-Tie Quik Drive auto-feed screw driving system, it delivers fast, repeatable installation across demanding applications including wood truck beds, trailer flooring, and wood nailers and ledgers fastened to steel framing. Straight collation keeps the screw strip feeding smoothly through the auto-feed system, while the T30 6-lobe drive and drill point with wings handle the heavy lifting of penetrating steel without pre-drilling.

Key Features

• Straight collation - feeds consistently through compatible auto-feed screw driving systems for uninterrupted, high-volume installation
• Flat head with nibs - the nibs aid countersinking so the head sits flush without extra work, leaving a clean finished surface
• T30 6-lobe drive - reduces driver-bit cam-outs during installation, giving the installer more control and fewer stripped heads compared to conventional drive styles
• Driver bit included - the correct T30 bit ships with the screws so work can begin immediately without sourcing additional accessories
• #4 drill point with wings - the drill point bores through steel while the wings ream the wood layer, allowing the screw to seat tightly without pre-drilling
• Tapping threads - cut their own mating threads into the steel for a secure, vibration-resistant connection in wood-to-steel assemblies
• N2000 Mechanically Galvanized coating - provides a medium level of corrosion resistance suited to general structural applications with moderate environmental exposure

Why This Product

• Purpose-built for wood-to-steel fastening - the combination of a #4 drill point with wings and tapping threads is specifically designed to penetrate hot-rolled steel and create a reliable mechanical connection, eliminating the pre-drilling step that slows wood-to-steel work on nailers, ledgers, truck beds, and trailer flooring
• Auto-feed ready for high-productivity jobsites - straight collation and compatibility with the Simpson Strong-Tie Quik Drive PROHSD60 or PROHSD60M systems means this screw integrates directly into an auto-feed workflow, dramatically reducing the time spent per fastener on repetitive structural tasks
• Cam-out resistance keeps installation clean and consistent - the T30 6-lobe drive geometry reduces the slipping and stripping that frustrates installers using older square-drive or Phillips configurations, translating to less rework and a more professional result
• Medium-level corrosion protection without over-engineering the spec - the N2000 Mechanically Galvanized finish is well-matched to structural applications where moderate environmental exposure is expected, so buyers are not paying for a heavy-duty coating on applications that do not require it

Frequently Asked Questions

What auto-feed tools are compatible with the TBG1460S?

The TBG1460S is designed to install with the Simpson Strong-Tie Quik Drive PROHSD60 or PROHSD60M auto-feed screw driving systems, which are optimized for use with straight-collated TB Wood-to-Steel screws.

What level of corrosion resistance does the N2000 coating provide?

The N2000 Mechanically Galvanized coating provides a medium-level of corrosion resistance, making it suitable for general structural applications where moderate environmental exposure is expected.

Why does this screw feature a T30 6-lobe drive instead of a square drive?

The T30 6-lobe drive is engineered to reduce driver-bit cam-outs during installation, resulting in a more controlled and efficient fastening experience compared to traditional square-drive designs.

Can the TB Wood-to-Steel screw be used for hand-drive fastening as well?

Yes. While the TBG1460S collated version is designed for use with the Simpson Strong-Tie Quik Drive auto-feed system, the TB Wood-to-Steel screw is also available in bulk form for hand-drive fastening applications.
