N10HDG 1-1/2" x .148 Hot-Dip Galvanized Metal Connector Nails are premium, corrosion-resistant high-tensile fasteners designed specifically for securing metal connectors, joist hangers, hurricane ties, straps, post bases, and other structural hardware to wood framing in exterior or high-moisture environments. The hot-dip galvanized (HDG) coating provides superior rust and corrosion protection for long-term durability in treated lumber and outdoor applications, while the .148" shank diameter and high-tensile steel construction deliver exceptional shear and withdrawal strength for code-compliant connections in shear walls, diaphragms, and engineered wood systems. The 1-1/2" length is optimized for typical metal connector thicknesses and wood framing, ensuring secure hold without excessive penetration. The smooth shank offers consistent drive and reliable performance. These nails are compatible with most positive placement nailers that accept 1-1/2" x .148" HDG fasteners. These nails deliver strong, dependable results for framers, structural builders, and contractors installing metal hardware.

Additional Information
- Since the installation of this product is usually done close to the face these nails have a paper tape as opposed to plastic that breaks off and poses a hazard to the eyes and face. Additionally they are heat treated to prevent bending during installation.
- Important: Consult your manufacturer's catalog to determine the proper diameter and length of nail when installing metal connectors, etc. You can download the latest Simpson Strong-Tie catalog from their website.
