Simpson Strong-Tie HST5HDG heavy strap ties are load rated and provide the correct thickness and number of fasteners the specifier is looking for compared with field fabricated straps. Install strap ties where top or bottom plates are cut, at wall intersections, and as ridge ties. Reduce the allowable load based on the size and quantity of fasteners used. The Strong-Tie HST5HDG strap tie features a hot dip galvanized finish for added corrosion resistance.

NOTE: The correct fasteners installed in the correct position must be used to achieve published load values

California Residents: WARNING

•Installs with machine bolts
•Designed to resist wind and seismic forces

• Use all specified fasteners.
• Allowable loads have been increased 60% for wind or earthquake loading with no further increase allowed; reduce where other loads govern.
• Allowable loads are based on parallel-to-grain loading and a minimum member thickness of 3 1/2" with machine bolts in a single shear. Straps must be centered about splice joint and bolt edge distances must meet NDS minimum requirements.
• Designer must determine allowable loads when combining bolts parallel and perpendicular to grain.
