Product Description
The Simpson 3-1/4 in. 20 deg. - 22 deg. Plastic Strip Ring-Shank Casing Head Nail in Tan 304 Stainless Steel is a collated fastener built for pneumatic nailers, designed to reduce driving force and increase installation speed when fastening wood deck boards and securing siding to wood. The annular ring-shank design and countersunk casing head work together to deliver a clean, secure finish, while the tan painted finish and checkered head pattern help the nail head blend naturally with decking and siding material for a professional result.
Key Features
- Countersunk casing head - sits flush below the surface for a clean, finished appearance on decks and siding without protruding hardware distracting from the final look.
- Tan painted finish with checkered head pattern - the color and texture are specifically designed to blend with wood grain on decking and siding material, keeping fastener heads visually unobtrusive.
- Annular ring-shank design - dramatically increases withdrawal resistance compared to smooth-shank nails, providing a secure, long-lasting attachment that resists loosening over time.
- Type 304 stainless steel construction - delivers exceptional corrosion resistance for demanding outdoor applications where moisture, weather, and treated lumber chemicals can degrade standard fasteners.
- 20 deg. - 22 deg. plastic strip collation - ensures consistent, obstruction-free auto-feed and is compatible with most major manufacturers' pneumatic nailers, keeping installation fast and efficient.
- Made in the United States - manufactured domestically to Simpson's quality standards for reliable, consistent performance across the full package quantity.
Why This Product
- Purpose-built for deck and siding work - the combination of a countersunk casing head, tan finish, and checkered pattern means the nail is engineered specifically to disappear into wood deck boards and siding surfaces, not just function as a generic fastener.
- Corrosion resistance where it matters most - Type 304 stainless steel construction makes these nails a reliable choice for exterior applications exposed to moisture and the elements, reducing the risk of rust staining or fastener failure over time.
- Ring-shank holding power for lasting results - the annular ring-shank increases withdrawal resistance beyond what smooth or spiral-shank nails provide, helping deck boards and siding panels stay firmly secured even through seasonal wood movement and weather cycles.
- Pneumatic nailer compatibility for job-site efficiency - 20 deg. - 22 deg. plastic strip collation works with most major manufacturers' pneumatic tools, so crews can drive nails faster and with less physical effort compared to hand nailing, without needing specialized equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What nailers are compatible with these Simpson S10A325KJT nails?
These nails use 20 deg. - 22 deg. plastic strip collation, which is compatible with most major manufacturers' pneumatic nailers designed for that collation angle. The plastic strip collation ensures consistent, obstruction-free auto-feed during installation.
What are these nails designed to be used for?
These nails are suitable for fastening wood deck boards and securing siding to wood. The tan painted finish and checker pattern on the casing head are specifically designed to blend with decking and siding material for a clean, finished appearance.
Why is the annular ring-shank important for deck and siding applications?
The annular ring-shank design increases withdrawal resistance compared to a smooth-shank nail, providing a more secure and long-lasting attachment. This makes it especially valuable in outdoor applications like decking and siding where fasteners are subject to movement and stress over time.
What material are these nails made from, and why does it matter?
These nails are made entirely from Type 304 stainless steel, which provides outstanding corrosion resistance and long-lasting durability. This makes them well suited for demanding outdoor environments where exposure to moisture could cause standard steel nails to rust and fail prematurely.
