PDPA Powder-Driven Pin

PDPA

On This Page

The PDPA is a hardened-steel, powder-actuated fastener designed to fasten building components to concrete, steel and CMU. The PDPA consists of a fastener with a 0.300"-diameter head and a 0.157"-diameter shank. The PDPA provides maximum jobsite productivity with fast installation.

Key Features

  • The minimum effective shank length must equal or exceed the sum of the thickness of the attached material and the minimum embedment depth
  • Code listed per ICC-ES ESR-2138, Florida FL15730 and LA RR25469
  • Designed for use with Simpson Strong-Tie® powder-actuated tool systems as well as other common tools
  • The PDPA-MG models are mechanically galvanized for additional corrosion protection
