Paslode RounDrive® Hot Dipped
Galvanized Plus! Fasteners

Ideal for All Pressure Treated Lumber Applications
Paslode's 30 degree full head RounDrive® Hot Dipped Galvanized (HDG) Plus! Strip fasteners feature superior corrosion protection for use in all pressure treated lumber applications, including ACQ and copper azole.

Paslode HDG Plus! Fasteners fully meet or exceed the zinc coating weight requirements of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). Those specifications (ASTM A153 Class D) require 1 ounce of zinc per square foot to prevent corrosion.

"We use a proprietary test method to evaluate fastener anti-corrosion properties, " said Cynthia Suarez, Paslode marketing specialist. "These aggressive corrosion resistant tests best represent how the lumber and fasteners will interact in real life conditions at an accelerated rate.

"Both internal and independent third party tests confirm that Paslode HDG Plus! Fasteners have 98% less red rust than conventional HDG. Staining, streaking and nail discoloration are reduced by 80% compared to conventional hot dip galvanized nails. Suarez adds, "HDG Plus! Nails are also suitable for use in Cedar applications since the coating acts as a moisture-barrier and helps minimize staining.

Paslode HDG Plus! Fasteners feature an advanced paper tape collation design and are available in sizes ranging from 2 to 3-1/4 inches in length and .113, .120, and .131 in nail diameter.

The fasteners can be used in Paslode 30 degree strip framing nailers including the new F350-S PowerMaster Plus™ framing nailer and the Paslode Cordless Framing Nailer.
