Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie MSUBH3.25-R100 is a 3-1/4 in. medium duty wall stud bridging connector engineered specifically for cold-formed steel (CFS) framing applications. Manufactured from 14-gauge (68 mil) G90 zinc-galvanized steel and sold in a contractor-friendly 100-count package, this connector delivers the strength, corrosion resistance, and installation efficiency that CFS professionals demand. The MSUBH's compact profile is purpose-built to allow standard 1-5/8 in. studs to be sistered directly against adjacent studs - eliminating clearance conflicts that slow down framing crews. Whether you're working on curtain-wall construction or a wide range of other cold-formed steel framing projects, the MSUBH3.25-R100 provides flexible, code-friendly design solutions across a broad range of stud sizes and web thicknesses.
Key Features
