{"title":"Simpson Strong-Tie Stud Shoes","description":"\u003cp\u003eSimpson Stud Shoes are designed and manufactured to protect and reinforce wood studs that have notches cut to allow plumbing and other access through the stud. When this happens, it decreases the strength of the stud, and also makes the plumbing or other important parts susceptible to puncture from nails and other fasteners. These Stud Shoes increase the strength of the stud, and also create a shield to prevent those fasteners from driving into the pipes going through the studs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStud Shoes are available in different sizes to accommodate 2x studs, 3x studs, 4x studs, double-2x studs or triple 2x studs, and come in two different styles - one with an open end using \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/joist-hanger-nails\" target=\"_blank\"\u003estandard 10d nails\u003c\/a\u003e (SS versions), and one with a bendable, closed end, which uses \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/simpson-sds-heavy-duty-connector-screws\"\u003eSimpson SDS Connector Screws\u003c\/a\u003e that are included (HSS versions).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeed assistance finding the right \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/simpson-connectors\"\u003eSimpson Connectors\u003c\/a\u003e for your job?
