    3. Acid resistant – Resistant to most acids found naturally in various wood types.<\/li>
    4. Cathodic Protection<\/strong> – Given scratches or other minor damages to the surface treatment, the screw is still protected due to the self-sacrificing action of the zinc layer.<\/li>
    5. Wood Color Match<\/strong> – Good color match to camouflage the screw head in various colors of wood.<\/li><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

      ZYTEC\u2122 XT Typical Usage<\/h3>

      Tested and recognized for use in most ground contact pressure treated lumber for general exterior construction as described by the American Wood Protection Association (AWPA) U1 UC4A or below.<\/p>

      For environments above UC4A, use proper grade of stainless steel.<\/p>

      Always assess the environment before selecting the type of coated fastener. Some corrosive environments including exposure to water, airborne salt, chemicals and pressure treated lumber rated above AWPA UC4A may cause early failure.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

              Compatible for use in a wide variety of interior wood applications. Its use is limited to interior untreated lumber.<\/p>

              For exterior applications and use in pressure treated lumber, use exterior coated fasteners or stainless steel fasteners.<\/p>

              Always assess the environment before selecting the type of coated fastener. Some
              corrosive environments including bathrooms, kitchen sinks, exposure to chemicals and use of pressure treated lumber may cause early failure. See next page for more info.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

              Description<\/h3>

              AISI 316 stainless steel is a high grade chromium-nickel steel with austenitic microstructure, giving it excellent corrosion resistance, ductility and strength. With its content of molybdenum it provides exceptional corrosion resistance, particularly in marine applications and this makes it suitable for and extremely tough environments. It is inherently nonmagnetic and has excellent resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion and has no risk of hydrogen embrittlement.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

                Typical Usage<\/h3>

                Stainless steel AISI 316 is code compliant for use in marine environments with saltwater splash, airborne salts, and areas with de-icing salts.<\/p>

                Always assess the environment before selecting the type of fastener material. Some corrosive environments including exposure to airborne salt, chemicals, chlorine and pressure treated lumber with higher retention levels may cause
                early failure.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

                AISI 302, 304, and 305 are chromium- nickel stainless steels with austenitic microstructure providing excellent corrosion resistance, ductility and strength. It is inherently non-magnetic and has no risk of hydrogen embrittlement. The presence of chromium and nickel ensures corrosion resistance by forming a passive oxide layer on the screw surface and makes it a great choice for use in acidic woods like redwood and cedar.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

                  Typical Usage<\/h3>

                  Stainless steel AISI 302, 304, and 305 are code compliant for use with ground contact pressure treated lumber in wet environments such as near freshwater lakes and rivers, and for use in redwood and cedar.<\/p>
