T30 Clear-Zinc Coat, Orange, 50-Pack (SDWC15600-KT)\u003c\/strong\u003e is a structural wood screw built for fastening trusses and rafters to wall top plates, while also handling stud-to-bottom and stud-to-top plate connections. This is a structural screw designed for high-wind wood framing connections. Model number: \u003cstrong\u003eSDWC15600-KT\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eWhat makes this screw matter is how it solves a real framing problem. Traditional truss and rafter tie-down methods can mean extra hardware, extra steps, or awkward installation from the outside of the structure. The SDWC lets fastening be done from inside the building, which can cut out exterior upper-story work and make installation safer and more practical on the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe .155-inch shank and fully threaded design are there for a reason. Instead of only biting near the tip, the fastener engages along the full length of the screw to help create a secure connection between roof and wall framing members. On engineered lumber, plated trusses, and solid-sawn lumber, that full engagement is a big part of why this fastener is used for structural tie-down work rather than general-purpose fastening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe 6-inch overall length with a 5-3\/4-inch thread length gives this model reach for deeper framing connections, while the Type-17 point helps it start faster and drive easier in wood. If you have ever fought a structural screw that wants to wander or split the start, this style of point helps get the fastener moving with less effort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe cap head is another smart detail. It is designed to countersink fully into the double top plate so it does not interfere with drywall or finish trades later. That matters on jobs where structural fastening has to happen without creating callbacks for the next crew. You get holding power without leaving a head sticking proud where it should not be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eInstallation is also more forgiving than many structural fastening methods. Simpson calls out a wide tolerance on the installation angle, and the included metal installation guide tool helps you keep placement and angle on track. Fastening can also be done before or after exterior sheathing is applied, which gives the framing crew more flexibility in sequencing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThis SDWC screw uses a T30 six-lobe drive for positive engagement and longer bit life. That is the practical difference between fighting stripped recesses and driving fasteners cleanly when you are working overhead, in corners, or one-handed. The included matched-tolerance driver bit is part of that system, and the listed replacement bit is BIT30T-2-R2.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe clear-zinc coated 6-inch version is finished in orange for easy inspection, which is not just cosmetic. On a framing inspection, being able to quickly identify the right fastener helps crews and inspectors confirm what was installed. For contractors working in wind-prone regions or anyone following specified structural fastening schedules, that visibility is useful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThis fastener is best suited to framers, general contractors, and serious remodelers handling structural wood connections where code-driven tie-down details matter. If you need a generic wood screw, this is overkill. If you need a purpose-built structural screw for truss, rafter, or stud-to-plate fastening with cleaner interior-side installation, this is the right kind of product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails id=\"product-benefits\" class=\"acc\"\u003e\n  \u003csummary\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstall From Inside the Structure\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"acc-body\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"img\"\u003e\n        \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/ssttoolbox.widen.net\/content\/awon5mbs4e\/jpeg\/F_SDWC_InstPho_Pho_Inst_SDWC-TrussScrew-HighVibrance-Orange_C0.jpeg?position=c\u0026amp;color=ffffffff\u0026amp;u=cjmyin\" alt=\"Simpson Strong-Tie Strong-Drive SDWC TRUSS Screw being driven into wood framing from inside the structure during truss-to-top-plate fastening on a jobsite\" class=\"tnblock-img\"\u003e\n      \u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"copy\"\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003eThis is the big advantage of the SDWC system.
