The Simpson META24/TSS2 20" Truss Anchor with 4" Embed and Seat is an engineered medium embedded truss anchor from Simpson designed to provide a reliable, load-rated connection between roof trusses and concrete or masonry walls. Built with a zinc galvanized G90 coating and paired with a snap-in TSS2 truss seat, this anchor delivers uplift resistance rated for both wind and seismic forces, making it a dependable fastening solution for residential and light commercial roof framing applications.

Key Features

• Indented embedment line - provides a clear, built-in depth reference during installation, helping ensure the anchor is set correctly for full load performance
• Staggered nail patterns - distribute fastener loads more effectively across the anchor, strengthening overall uplift resistance at the truss-to-wall connection
• Compatible with single- and multi-ply trusses when used in pairs - gives contractors flexibility to handle a wider range of truss configurations on the same jobsite
• Compatible with Simpson TSS and TBP8 moisture barrier plates - allows for added moisture protection at the connection point without requiring separate specialty hardware
• Rated for wind and seismic forces - supports compliance with structural requirements in demanding load environments, offering peace of mind for builders and inspectors alike
• Can be installed straight or field-bent around truss or rafter members - reduces the need for additional components when adapting to different framing conditions on site
• Zinc galvanized G90 coating - provides corrosion resistance to help maintain structural integrity over the life of the installation

Why This Product

• Engineered for code-relevant load demands - this truss anchor is rated for both wind and seismic uplift forces, making it well-suited for projects where structural connections must meet specific load requirements
• Built-in installation accuracy - the indented embedment line takes the guesswork out of setting depth, reducing the chance of installation errors that could compromise anchor performance
• Versatile across truss types and site conditions - the ability to install straight or field-bent, and to use in pairs on single- or multi-ply trusses, means fewer trips to the supply house and more adaptability during framing
• A complete, ready-to-install connection - the anchor ships with the snap-in TSS2 truss seat included, giving you the key components needed for a secure truss-to-wall tie-in without sourcing separate parts
