Description

The Simpson Strong-Tie HSS4-SDS3 Heavy Stud Shoe is engineered to reinforce 4x wood studs when large holes are required for plumbing, electrical, or mechanical runs. Designed to maintain structural integrity, this stud shoe helps redistribute loads around the opening, reducing the risk of weakening load-bearing members.

Constructed from heavy-gauge steel, the HSS4-SDS3 delivers dependable strength in demanding applications. It installs easily using Strong-Drive SDS heavy-duty connector screws, providing a secure connection without the need for through-bolting. Ideal for contractors and builders working on residential or commercial framing projects, this stud shoe ensures code-compliant reinforcement where it matters most.

Key Features:

  • Reinforces 4x studs when large diameter holes are drilled
  • Heavy-gauge steel construction for high load capacity
  • Installs with Strong-Drive SDS screws for fast, secure attachment
  • Eliminates the need for through-bolting in most applications
  • Helps maintain structural integrity of load-bearing walls

Applications:

  • Plumbing pipe penetrations through wall studs
  • Electrical conduit and wiring runs
  • HVAC duct and mechanical routing
  • Residential and commercial wood framing projects
  • Any application requiring code-compliant stud reinforcement

Installation:

  • Position the stud shoe over the drilled hole in the stud
  • Align the flange with the face of the stud
  • Secure using specified Strong-Drive SDS screws in all required holes
  • Ensure installation follows manufacturer load and code requirements
  • Do not exceed allowable hole sizes or spacing guidelines

Product is not for a quantity of 4 studs

The framers for our project and I had to come up with a solution for the plumbers over drilling 2x6 studs. 2 Jack and 1 king and 1 stud on the inside of that. This seemed to be the product. After paying the 1 day shipping, I didn’t get it until several days later only to find out that it was for a 4x4 post… not 4x’s the standard width of 2x6s. After paying $80 plus and then returning the product I only got $24 back. I asked for more back because of getting my product later than promised and confusing/ misleading description “4x stud shoe”. Didn’t get anywhere. I would not recommend fasteners plus to anyone.
