Product Description
The Simpson 15 deg. Wire Coil Full Round Head Ring-Shank Nail in Type 316 Stainless Steel is a purpose-built fastener for wood decking and general framing projects where holding power and long-term corrosion resistance are non-negotiable. Made by Simpson from Type 316 stainless steel, this 6d, 2 in., 12-gauge nail features an annular ring shank that significantly increases withdrawal resistance compared to smooth-shank alternatives, making it a dependable choice for coastal, marine, and high-moisture environments where standard fasteners are prone to premature failure. Wire-coil collation at a 15 deg. angle pairs with many major manufacturers' pneumatic coil nailers, keeping installation fast and efficient across framing and deck board applications.
Key Features
- Type 316 stainless steel material - provides severe-level corrosion resistance, making these nails well suited for coastal, marine, and chemically aggressive environments where lesser fasteners break down over time.
- Annular ring-shank design - increases withdrawal resistance to provide a secure attachment, reducing the risk of fastener pullout in demanding framing and decking assemblies.
- Full round head with checkered pattern - the checker pattern blends with the wood grain, reduces glare from sunlight, and accepts surface finishes, resulting in a cleaner, more finished appearance on exposed deck boards.
- 15 deg. wire-coil collation - compatible with many major manufacturers' pneumatic coil nailers, so reloading is quick and you can maintain a steady work pace on larger framing and decking jobs.
- Diamond point tip - drives cleanly and consistently into lumber, minimizing wood splitting and helping maintain structural integrity at each fastening point.
- 12-gauge, 2 in. length (6d) - a proven combination for deck board attachment and light framing connections that demand reliable penetration without over-driving.
Why This Product
- Severe-level corrosion resistance built in from the start - Type 316 stainless steel goes well beyond standard galvanized or coated fasteners, making this nail a sound long-term investment for outdoor decks, docks, and any structure exposed to salt air or persistent moisture.
- Ring-shank holding power reduces callbacks - the annular ring shank delivers measurably greater withdrawal resistance than smooth-shank nails, so connections stay tight over years of seasonal wood movement and heavy use.
- Head design that works with the finished surface - the checkered full round head reduces glare and accepts surface finishes, a practical advantage when appearance matters on visible deck boards and exterior woodwork.
- Domestic production and broad tool compatibility - made in the United States and compatible with many major manufacturers' pneumatic coil nailers, this fastener fits naturally into professional workflows without requiring specialty equipment or compromising on quality standards.

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of corrosion resistance do these nails provide, and where are they best suited?
These nails are made from Type 316 stainless steel, which provides severe-level corrosion resistance. This makes them well suited for coastal, marine, and other chemically aggressive or high-moisture environments where standard fasteners are prone to premature failure.
What nailers are compatible with these wire-coil nails?
The T12A200PNB features 15 deg. wire-coil collation and is compatible with many major manufacturers' pneumatic coil nailers. Check your tool manufacturer's specifications to confirm compatibility with 15 deg. wire-coil, 12-gauge nails before use.
Why does an annular ring shank matter compared to a smooth shank?
The annular ring shank dramatically increases withdrawal resistance compared to smooth-shank alternatives. This means the nail resists being pulled back out of the wood, delivering a more secure and lasting connection - particularly important in structural framing and decking assemblies.
What are the key physical specifications of this nail?
This nail measures 2 inches in length with a shank diameter of 0.113 inches and is 12 gauge. It features a full round head with a 1/4-inch head diameter, a diamond point, and a checker pattern on the head that blends with wood grain, reduces glare from sunlight, and accepts surface finishes. Each pack contains 3,600 nails.
