Simpson 10d x 3" 31 deg. - 34 deg. Ring-Shank Nail, 304 Stainless Steel - 1,000 Pack (S11A300P31)

The Simpson S11A300P31 is a 10d, 3-inch full round head, annular ring-shank nail engineered for demanding framing and structural fastening applications where both holding power and corrosion resistance are critical. Manufactured from Type 304 stainless steel, these plastic strip nails are collated at a 31 deg. - 34 deg. angle for compatibility with a wide range of pneumatic framing nailers. The annular ring shank dramatically increases withdrawal resistance compared to smooth-shank nails, delivering a more secure attachment in wood framing, decking substrates, and other structural assemblies. Each pack contains 1,000 nails, making it an efficient choice for professional contractors and high-volume jobsite use.

Key Features

• Annular Ring Shank: Increases withdrawal resistance to provide a secure, long-lasting attachment in structural wood applications.
• Type 304 Stainless Steel: Delivers high corrosion resistance, making these nails suitable for applications exposed to moisture, salt air, and other corrosive environments.
• Checkered Head Pattern: The checker pattern on the full round head blends with wood grain, reduces glare from sunlight, and accepts surface finishes for a cleaner appearance.
• Full Round Head: Maximizes bearing surface against the workpiece for superior holding strength.
• 31 deg. - 34 deg. Plastic Strip Collation: Compatible with a broad selection of popular pneumatic framing nailers (see compatible tools below).
• 1,000-Count Pack: High-volume packaging reduces downtime and keeps large framing projects moving efficiently.

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of nailers are compatible with these collated nails?

These nails are collated at a 31 deg. - 34 deg. angle on plastic strip, making them compatible with a wide range of pneumatic framing nailers that accept 31 deg. - 34 deg. plastic strip collation.

Why choose a ring-shank nail over a smooth-shank nail for framing applications?

The annular ring shank dramatically increases withdrawal resistance compared to smooth-shank nails, delivering a more secure and long-lasting attachment in structural wood assemblies, framing, and decking substrates.

Are these nails suitable for use in corrosive or coastal environments?

Yes. These nails are manufactured from Type 304 stainless steel, which provides high corrosion resistance, making them well suited for applications exposed to moisture, salt air, and other corrosive environments.

What is the head style on these nails, and does it affect their performance?

These nails feature a full round head with a checkered pattern. The full round head maximizes the bearing surface against the workpiece for superior holding strength, while the checker pattern blends with wood grain, reduces glare from sunlight, and accepts surface finishes for a cleaner appearance.
