    ​Hi Adam, thank you for your message. We want to make sure we address your question regarding the use of Strong-Drive® SD CONNECTOR Screw with the ABA Adjustable Post Base and the LPC Light Post Cap. The ABA can use the SD Connector Screws but you will need to use #10 x 1-1/2", the LPC can use the #9 x 1-1/2" SD Connector Screws you were asking about. If you need more information or have additional questions, please contact the Simpson Strong-Tie Customer Service team at 800-999-5099. We look forward to hearing from you. -Stacy

      I am sure you can use these 1 1/2" hex head screws, however.... since you would be going into 4 x4 post why not use 2" or 2 1/2" screws at a slight angle so that they don't collide? Depending on the pressure on the 4 x 4s, a longer screw might just make it more secure.

        These screws are designed to be used with Simpson structural brackets. I suppose you could use them but there are less expensive options.

          Hello, this is McKenzie with Simpson Strong-Tie. The Strong-Drive SD Connector Screw was created as a nail replacement screw. The testing we have is mostly for our Strong-Tie connectors, but it is possible this could work for your application.

            Hi Bota, thank you for your inquiry. We have not evaluated (tested) the PBS66 installed with our SD connector screw. The required fastener to achieve the published load is a .162 x 3 1/2" nail. If you need more information or have additional questions, please contact the Simpson Strong-Tie Customer Service team at 800-999-5099. Thank you-Colin.

              Simpson’s website calls for the 2 1/2 inch screw for this post base.

              Hi Andrew, thank you for your question. The ABA66Z may be installed with (8) #10x1-1/2" long SD Connector screws (model SD10112). Additional information can be found on our website here: www.strongtie.com/sd -McKenzie

                Used the screws with Simpson hurricane truss ties

                  Hello Gene, this is McKenzie with Simpson Strong-Tie. The Simpson Strong-Tie Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screw is a 1/4"-diameter high-strength structural screw ideal for various connector installations as well as wood-to-wood and engineered wood applications. This screw was designed to be used with specific connectors. In our catalog, the load tables will reference required fasteners as SDS screws if this is the case. Many times the model number will end in -SDS, signifying them required for installation. I hope this helps.

                    If you are just replacing a window you aren't nomally concerned with lateral loads or shear.

                    For maximum strength, If you have enough space for 3 inch square washers (aka bearing plates), I would recommend epoxy and bolts such as: Simpson Strong-Tie Hot-Dip Galvanized 1/2 in. x 5 in. Retro-Fit Bolt Model# RFB#4X5HDG-R Simpson Strong-Tie 8.5 oz. Epoxy-Tie Cartridge Model# SET-XP10 Simpson Strong-Tie Epoxy Mixing Nozzle Model# EMN22I Simpson Strong-Tie BP 3 in. x 3 in. Hot-Dip Galvanized Bearing Plate with 5/8 in. Bolt Dia. Model# BP 5/8-3HDG

                    Sure. Be sure these screws are hidden (not pretty). There's some SPAX screws that looks pretty if they're going to be visible.

                    Not sure how this product would help unless your installing to joists or ties as part of the reconstruction.

                    Yes. The hex head bit is included...

                    By|Aug 17, 2020

                    Yes. It comes with a bit. But you should always have a spare on hand. Things wear out you know.

                    By|Aug 13, 2020

                    Yes. It’s compatible for impact drivers.

                          Not every store has the options you want.

                          Call the store you prefer and ask them to order the product and they will call you when it comes in.
