USP Structural Connectors NA11-1MC 8D by 1.5-Inch Hot Dip Galvanized Nails, 152-Count

Description

From the Manufacturer Joist hanger nails are sized to 1-1/2" to allow utilization with 2x lumber. Allowable shear values assume nail embedment into the wood of the entire nail or 10 nail diameters (whichever is less). Otherwise, the nail must be embedded at least 6 nail diameters, with the load reduced using the equation: Reduced Load = (Published Load X Actual Penetration) / (Nail Diameter X 10). Load reductions may occur if nails are used other than those specified.
