8D MAZE S227A RING SPLITLESS 25#
Description
Maze S227A 8D Split-Less® Siding Nails – Ring Shank, Hot-Dipped Galvanized (25 lb. Box)
Keep your siding pristine and secure with the industry standard for wood-to-wood fastening. The Maze S227A is specifically engineered for split-prone woods like Cedar and Redwood. Its unique design allows for high-strength fastening without the risk of ruining expensive siding panels.
Key Features
Split-Less® Technology: Features a slim, sturdy shank and a specialized blunt point that virtually eliminates wood splitting, even near the ends of boards.
STORMGUARD® Double Hot-Dip Galvanized: These nails are dipped twice in molten zinc to ensure a thick, uniform coating that exceeds ASTM A153 specifications for long-term rust and corrosion resistance.
Superior Holding Power: The ring shank design acts like a screw, gripping wood fibers tightly to prevent "back-out" or loosening over time due to temperature fluctuations.
Checkered Head: The textured head is designed to hold paint and stains better than smooth heads, making it the ideal choice for siding that will be finished or color-matched.
Made in the USA: Manufactured with pride by Maze Nails, a leader in high-quality American fasteners for over 100 years.
