Product Description
The Simpson SP6Z 5-9/16 in. x 7-3/4 in. ZMAX Galvanized Stud-Plate Tie (Model SP6Z) by Simpson Strong-Tie is a U-shaped structural connector engineered to create a reliable stud-to-plate connection that resists uplift forces. Designed for use with a nominal 2x stud and a nominal 6x plate, this tie features a horizontal portion that bears against wood-wall top plates or sill plates and two vertical legs that nail directly to the edges of the wood stud. With ZMAX galvanized coating for enhanced corrosion resistance, the SP6Z is a cost-effective solution for exterior and treated-wood applications when installed before wall placement.
