SP2 Stud-Plate Tie - 3-1/2-in. x 6-5/8-in., Zinc Galvanized 20-Gauge Steel Construction, Stud-to-Plate Connections to Resist Uplift, Wind, and Seismic Forces

EXTENDED PLATE CONNECTION: The 3-1/2-in. x 6-5/8-in. stud-plate tie fastens studs to double top plates, delivering excellent uplift resistance and structural reinforcement for taller walls or heavier framing, keeping studs secured under wind, seismic, or lateral forces. LONGER REINFORCEMENT REACH: The stud-plate tie's extended length spans double plates effectively, distributing loads along the wall assembly and strengthening critical connections where additional strength is needed in demanding construction. ENHANCED NAIL PATTERN: Angled and staggered nail holes direct fasteners for correct placement, lower the risk of splitting wood, and boost the overall holding strength of the connection, leading to more dependable performance under dynamic loads and repetitive stress. GALVANIZED CORROSION PROTECTION: Made from 20-gauge galvanized steel, the stud-plate tie withstands corrosion in standard construction and light exterior conditions, offering long-term durability and preserving structural integrity over time. RELIABILITY: Our mission is to deliver solutions that assist people in designing and building safer, stronger structures. As a pioneer in the building industry, we possess an unmatched dedication to problem solving through skillful engineering and thoughtful innovation
