Simpson Strong-Tie SC32-5/97-KT25 Slide Clip 2" x 3.5" x 5" 12Ga w/Screws 25ct

Product Details

Ideal for high-seismic areas, Simpson Strong-Tie^® SC connectors are the optimal solution for slide-clip bypass framing. SC clips are often welded to the structure in high-seismic zones, but they also feature anchorage holes so that concrete screws or powder-actuated fasteners can be used to attach the clip to the structure. In addition to anchorage versatility, the SC clips include No-Equal^® stamps at the center of the slots to ensure proper shouldered screw placement. SC connectors are manufactured using heavy-duty 10- and 12-gauge steel to provide exceptional resistance to in-plane seismic load.

Key Features

• The clips come in lengths of 3 1/2", 6" and 8" for use with 3 5/8", 6" and 8" studs, respectively
• The maximum standoff distance is 1" for 3 5/8" studs and 1 1/2" for 6"and 8" studs
• Provides a full 3/4" of both upward and downward deflection
• Embossments in the bend line provide increased strength and stiffness in the F₁ and F₂ load directions, but are positioned towards the center of the clip so that 1 1/2"-long welds can be applied at the top and bottom of the clip
• Prepunched large-diameter anchor holes accommodate 1/4"-diameter concrete screws like the Simpson Strong-Tie Titen HD^®
• Prepunched small-diameter anchor holes accommodate powder-actuated fasteners like the 0.157"-diameter Simpson Strong-Tie PDPAT or the #12 self-drilling Simpson Strong-Tie Strong-Drive^® XL Large-Head Metal screw
• Precision-manufactured shouldered screws, provided with SC connectors, are designed to prevent overdriving and to ensure the clip functions properly
