The Simpson Strong-Tie® HDUE™ holdown delivers exceptional strength and reliability for securing shearwalls, braced wall panels and other lateral-force-resisting applications in wood construction. It features a predeflected seat that reduces deflection under load, an overlapping back plate for increased strength and optimized screw patterns to prevent splitting, ensuring superior performance. Installation is fast and efficient with Simpson Strong-Tie Strong‑Drive® SDS Heavy‑Duty Connector screws, making it a dependable choice for modern residential construction.
Features
- Predeflected seat reduces deflection under load
- Angled fastening engages the screws in tension for higher load capacity, reducing the number of screws required
- Angled fastening tabs help drive the fastener at a 45° angle, and offset holes on the second back plate block the fastener from being driven straight
- Overlapping back plate increases fastener strength and shear values, helping prevent post splitting
- Optimized screw patterns reduce splitting at the end of the post and maximize individual fastener capacity
- Extruded seat adds a greater cross-sectional steel section for added strength
- Teardrop holes allow higher and more even distribution of load
- Height: 27-7/8 in.
- Made from 10-gauge steel; hot-dip galvanization (HDG) offers extra corrosion resistance for exterior and treated-wood applications
