Product Description
The Simpson SSWSC212BS #8 x 2-1/2 in. 305 Stainless Steel Collated Roofing Tile Screw is a precision-engineered fastener from Simpson designed specifically for connecting roofing tiles to wood. Built to work seamlessly with the Simpson Strong-Tie Quik Drive auto-feed screw driving system, this collated screw delivers controlled driving depth to protect tiles from cracking during installation while significantly increasing job-site efficiency and cutting overall installation time. Manufactured from Type 305 stainless steel, it is built to hold up in the demanding conditions common to tile and slate roofing applications.
Key Features
- Curved collation - feeds smoothly and consistently through the Quik Drive auto-feed system, reducing jams and keeping your workflow moving
- Bugle head design - seats flush against the tile surface without causing surface damage, delivering a clean, professional finish
- #2 square drive - provides reliable torque transfer and reduces cam-out compared to phillips-style drives, giving the installer more control
- Coarse threads - grip wood substrate firmly for a strong, secure connection between the roofing tile and the structure beneath
- Type-17 point - cuts into wood cleanly without pre-drilling, speeding up the fastening process and reducing material stress
- Type 305 stainless steel construction - offers long-lasting durability suited to roofing environments where exposure to moisture and the elements is a constant factor
- Precision depth settings via Quik Drive system - prevents tile breakage by controlling exactly how far each screw is driven, protecting your materials and finished work
- Driver bit included - gets you started right out of the box, with a replacement bit available under model BIT2S when needed
Why This Product
- Engineered to prevent tile breakage - the collated-screw fastening system is designed with precision depth settings that stop screws from over-driving, protecting costly roofing tiles during installation and reducing waste on the job
- Built for high-volume roofing work - curved collation and compatibility with the Simpson Strong-Tie Quik Drive auto-feed system means tile and slate roofing installers can drive fasteners faster and more consistently than with hand-loaded screws, cutting labor time significantly
- Long-term corrosion resistance from Type 305 stainless steel - the material choice directly addresses the harsh, moisture-exposed environment of roofing applications, helping ensure the connection between tile and wood stays strong over the life of the roof
- A complete, ready-to-use fastening solution - with a driver bit included in every package and a clear compatible tool path through the Quik Drive PRORFG2 or PRO300SRFG2 systems, this product gives roofing professionals everything they need to get to work without sourcing additional accessories
