Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie HETA20Z HETA 20 in. ZMAX Galvanized Heavy Embedded Truss Anchor is an engineered connector designed to securely attach roof trusses to concrete and masonry walls. Featuring staggered nail patterns to strengthen uplift resistance, this heavy embedded truss anchor can be used in pairs on single- and multi-ply trusses and offers the flexibility to be installed straight or field-bent around truss or rafter members. Its ZMAX galvanized coating delivers superior corrosion resistance, making it well suited for exterior and treated-wood applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the embedment depth for the HETA20Z, and how do I ensure accuracy during installation?
- The HETA20Z is designed to embed 4 in. into a poured concrete bond beam or grouted block wall. To help achieve the correct embedment depth during installation, the anchor features an indented embedment line that serves as a precise visual guide, eliminating guesswork on the job site.
- What type of fasteners should be used to install the HETA20Z?
- The HETA20Z should be installed with 10d x 1-1/2 in. nails or 16d common nails. The anchor's staggered nail pattern is specifically designed to maximize uplift resistance when properly fastened.
- Is the HETA20Z rated for wind and seismic applications?
- Yes. The HETA20Z is load rated for both wind and seismic forces, making it an engineered solution appropriate for demanding structural applications where resistance to lateral and uplift loads is required.
- Why does the HETA20Z feature ZMAX galvanization instead of standard galvanization?
- ZMAX galvanization provides an extra level of corrosion resistance compared to standard coatings, making the HETA20Z well suited for exterior applications and use with treated wood where exposure to moisture and corrosive environments is a concern.
