The Simpson Strong-Tie XLSH34B1414-RP83 Large Shouldered Screw is built for high-strength steel-to-steel fastening, delivering consistent performance and reliability in structural framing applications. Designed with a large bearing surface and robust shouldered shank, these screws provide strong clamping force and shear capacity in light-gauge steel framing and panelized construction.
Each screw features a self-drilling point that eliminates the need for predrilling, saving time during installation. The large shoulder under the head helps resist pull-through, making these fasteners an ideal choice for attaching steel components such as clips, straps, or cold-formed framing elements. Available in multiple sizes and quantities to meet the needs of both professionals and commercial contractors.
Key Features:
- Shouldered design enhances bearing surface and pull-through resistance
- Self-drilling tip eliminates predrilling in light-gauge steel
- Optimized for shear and tensile strength in structural applications
- Carbon steel construction with black phosphate coating for corrosion resistance in dry environments
- Precision-manufactured for consistent drive and alignment
Applications:
- Cold-formed steel framing
- Structural panel attachments
- Clips, straps, and framing hardware connections
- Light-to-medium gauge steel assemblies
- Commercial construction and prefabricated framing systems
Installation Notes:
- Designed for use with light-gauge steel
- No predrilling required in most applications
- Use with a compatible driver bit for clean, flush installation
- Install until shoulder seats against the surface; do not overtighten
