Product Description
The Simpson 8d x 2-3/8 in. 20-22 deg. Plastic Strip Casing Head Ring-Shank Nail 304 SS 11 ga. from Simpson is a collated fastener built for professional-grade attachment of wood deck boards and exterior siding to wood. Manufactured from Type 304 stainless steel, this ring-shank nail is engineered to hold firm in demanding outdoor conditions where moisture and corrosion are ongoing concerns. The 20 deg. - 22 deg. plastic strip collation feeds consistently through most major manufacturers' compatible pneumatic nailers, helping crews work faster and with less effort on every run.
Key Features
- Countersunk casing head - sits flush with the surface after driving, producing a clean, professional finish on deck boards and siding installations.
- Checker pattern on the head - blends naturally with wood grain so fastener heads remain visually unobtrusive on finished surfaces.
- Annular ring-shank design - increases withdrawal resistance compared to smooth-shank nails, providing a secure attachment that resists loosening over time.
- 20 deg. - 22 deg. plastic strip collation - enables consistent, obstruction-free auto-feed through most major manufacturers' compatible pneumatic nailers, reducing downtime and driving fatigue.
- Type 304 stainless steel construction - delivers long-lasting corrosion resistance, making these nails well suited for exterior and moisture-exposed applications like wood decking and siding.
- 1,000-count package - provides enough fasteners to sustain productivity through full-scale deck and siding projects without frequent restocking.
Why This Product
- Purpose-built for wood deck boards and siding - the combination of a countersunk casing head, checker-pattern face, and annular ring shank addresses the specific holding and appearance demands of exterior wood fastening applications, reducing the risk of surface damage or fastener pullout.
- Corrosion resistance you can count on outdoors - Type 304 stainless steel construction means these nails resist rust and degradation in the wet, weathered environments common to deck and siding work, helping the finished assembly maintain integrity over the long term.
- Compatible with the pneumatic tools already on the job - the 20 deg. - 22 deg. plastic strip format works with most major manufacturers' nailers, so there is no need to source specialty equipment or swap tools mid-project.
- Made in the United States by a trusted fastener brand - Simpson produces this nail to consistent quality standards, giving contractors and serious DIYers confidence in dimensional accuracy and material integrity right out of the box.

Frequently Asked Questions
What collation angle and nailer type are these nails compatible with?
These nails use 20 deg. - 22 deg. plastic strip collation, which is compatible with most major manufacturers' 20 deg. - 22 deg. pneumatic framing and finish nailers. The plastic strip design ensures consistent, obstruction-free auto-feed during operation.
What material are these nails made from, and why does it matter for outdoor use?

What are the key dimensions and shank specifications for these nails?
Each nail measures 2-3/8 inches in length at 11 gauge, with a shank diameter of 0.120 inches and a head diameter of 1/4 inch. The shank is an annular ring-shank design, which increases withdrawal resistance for a secure, long-term attachment that resists pull-out forces.
What applications are these nails intended for?
These nails are suitable for fastening wood deck boards and fastening siding to wood. The countersunk casing head features a checker pattern designed to blend naturally with wood grain, resulting in a clean, professional appearance on visible surfaces.
