These fasteners are designed with a low profile large diameter wafer head for applications requiring additional surface area under the head for superior pull-down force. Cold-rolled "carbon steel" wire, heat treated to grade 5 durability and plated with a yellow zinc finish to prevent red rust. "Yellow zinc" is tested and recognized for use in above-ground contact pressure-treated lumber for interior dry/damp general construction applications.
