Product Description
Ideal for high-seismic areas, the Simpson Strong-Tie FC62-5/97-R25 Fixed-Clip Connector is the optimal solution for fixed-clip bypass framing. FC clips are often welded to the structure in high-seismic zones, but they also feature anchorage holes so that concrete screws or powder-actuated fasteners can be used to attach the clip to the structure. In addition to its anchorage versatility, the FC clip features prepunched screw holes for the framing attachment, eliminating the need for predrilling holes or worrying that fastener placement doesn't match the designer specifications. FC connectors are manufactured using heavy-duty 12-gauge steel to provide exceptional resistance to in-plane seismic load. This package includes 25 clips.
