Specifications

The Simpson Strong-Tie DTT2 Deck Tension Tie with ZMAX coating is engineered to provide a reliable lateral load connection between your deck and the supporting structure. Designed to help resist deck movement caused by wind or seismic forces, the DTT2 plays a critical role in improving overall deck stability and safety.
This model features a corrosion-resistant ZMAX galvanized finish, making it ideal for exterior deck applications exposed to the elements. Each DTT2 includes (8) 1/4" x 2-1/2" Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws for secure attachment to deck joists or framing members. When properly installed with a 1/2" diameter threaded rod or anchor bolt into the supporting structure, the DTT2 helps meet code requirements for deck lateral load connections.
