Product Description
The Simpson ST6215 16-5/16 in. 16-Gauge Galvanized Strap Tie from Simpson is a load-rated, precut strap tie engineered to resist tension loads across a wide range of structural connections. Built for installations where top or bottom plates are cut, at wall intersections, and as ridge ties, this economical strap delivers reliable structural performance with a design that keeps installation straightforward and efficient.
Key Features
- Engineered to resist wind and seismic forces - provides dependable tension load resistance in structurally demanding environments, including areas subject to high wind and seismic activity
- Precut straps for ease of installation - arrive job-site ready with no cutting required, saving time and reducing labor during framing and structural tie work
- 16-gauge steel construction - delivers the strength and rigidity needed for load-rated tension applications without adding unnecessary bulk to the connection
- Zinc Galvanized G90 coating - provides strong corrosion resistance, helping the strap maintain structural integrity over time in a variety of conditions
- 2-1/16 in. width and 16-5/16 in. length - precise dimensions allow for consistent, code-compliant placement across common framing applications including plate repairs, wall intersections, and ridge tie connections
Why This Product
- Versatile structural application - equally suited for plate repairs, wall intersections, and ridge ties, this strap tie handles the tension load challenges that frequently arise in wood-frame construction
- Optimized for speed on the job site - the precut, load-rated design means installers spend less time fitting and more time fastening, using standard nails or Strong-Drive SD Connector screws
- Built-in corrosion protection - the G90 galvanized finish is not a surface treatment afterthought but an integral part of the product specification, supporting long-term performance in the field
- Economical without compromising performance - the ST6215 is positioned as a cost-effective solution for common framing repairs and connections, making it a practical choice when tension load resistance is needed across multiple locations on a project
