Simpson Strong-Tie WSV134S Subfloor Screw #9 x 1-3/4in Yellow-Zinc

Description

Product Overview

The Simpson Strong‑Tie WSV134S is a high‑performance collated subfloor screw designed for demanding residential and commercial flooring applications. Constructed from hardened steel and finished with a durable yellow‑zinc coating, each screw offers superior corrosion resistance and long‑term stability in a variety of indoor environments. The rimmed flat head with precision‑cut nibs ensures a clean, flush countersink that protects the surrounding wood while providing a secure bite for the driver bit. The innovative high‑low threaded tip, combined with a variable thread design, reduces the initial driving torque required to start the screw, allowing installers to achieve up to 25% faster driving speeds without sacrificing holding power. With a #9 diameter, a length of 1‑3/4 inches, and a partially threaded shank, the WSV134S delivers the optimal balance of shear strength and pull‑out resistance for joist‑to‑subfloor connections. Each box contains 2,000 collated screws, ready for use in high‑volume projects.

Usage

These screws are ideally suited for installing engineered hardwood, laminate, and solid‑wood flooring systems where a secure, noise‑free subfloor is essential. The WSV134S excels in both new construction and retrofit scenarios, providing a reliable fastening solution for joist spacing up to 16 inches and groove diameters of 0.33 inches. Installers can use standard impact drivers or pneumatic nail guns equipped with collated strips, benefiting from the screw’s easy‑start tip that minimizes cam‑out and reduces tool wear. The design also allows for straightforward removal when access to floor cavities is required for future upgrades or repairs. Whether you are a seasoned contractor working on multi‑unit housing or a DIY enthusiast tackling a single‑family renovation, the WSV134S offers the confidence of a proven fastening system that reduces squeaks and maintains structural integrity over the life of the floor.
