Product Description
Simpson HDUE5-SDS3 HDUE 11-5/16 in. Galvanized Predeflected Holdown with Strong-Drive SDS Screws is engineered by Simpson Strong-Tie to deliver exceptional overturning resistance for shearwalls, braced wall panels, and other lateral-force-resisting applications in wood construction. Featuring a predeflected seat that reduces deflection under load and an overlapping back plate for increased strength, this holdown is a dependable choice for modern residential construction demanding superior performance.
Key Features
- Predeflected seat reduces deflection under load
- 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: 11-5/16 in.
- Made from 14-gauge steel
- Galvanized (G90) for corrosion resistance

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the purpose of the predeflected seat on the HDUE5-SDS3?
- The predeflected seat is specifically designed to reduce deflection under load, helping the holdown maintain tighter, more controlled movement during lateral force events and improving overall structural performance.
- What fasteners are required to install the HDUE5-SDS3?
- The HDUE5-SDS3 installs with a 5/8 in. anchor bolt and (10) 1/4 in. x 3 in. Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws, which are included with the holdown.
- How does the overlapping back plate benefit the HDUE5-SDS3?
- The overlapping back plate increases fastener strength and shear values, helping prevent post splitting and contributing to higher load capacity compared to designs without this feature.
- What coating does the HDUE5-SDS3 have, and why does it matter?
- The HDUE5-SDS3 is coated with Zinc Galvanized, G90 finish, which provides corrosion resistance to help ensure long-term durability in demanding construction environments.
