Fasteners

PorterSIP fasteners are specifically engineered for attaching structural insulated panels (SIPs) and nail base panels to wood and metal framing. Featuring a large, pancake head style with 6-lobe drive, our SIP fasteners drive quickly and smoothly, and draw panels securely together. We offer three fastener styles for use in wood, corrugated steel and steel members without pre-drilling.

Product Features:

  • •  Case hardened and tempered for easy installation and long term strength
  • •  Large diameter, low profile pancake head provides excellent pull-through resistance
  • •  6-Lobe internal drive offers excellent bit engagement during installation, especially in high torque applications.
  • •  Widest selection of fastener lengths in the industry for proper sizing to panel thickness.
  • •  Choice of 3 thread/point styles for job-matched performance in either wood or steel substrates.
  • •  E-Coat: epoxy finished for corrosion resistance
