Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie HST5HDG Heavy Strap Tie is a heavy, load-rated, precut strap engineered to support heavy, concentrated loads by creating a strong connection between wood girders and piles. Measuring 5 in. wide by 21-1/4 in. long and fabricated from robust 7-gauge steel, this strap tie delivers exceptional structural integrity for demanding construction applications. The hot-dip galvanized (HDG) finish provides superior corrosion resistance, making it well suited for exterior environments and treated-wood applications. Simpson Strong-Tie straps and plates join and reinforce joints with simple, versatile solutions across a wide range of connections - available in many lengths, widths, and thicknesses for both light repairs and heavy-duty projects.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What fasteners are required to install the HST5HDG?
- The HST5HDG installs with machine bolts - specifically 12 bolts of 5/8 in. diameter, which should also be hot-dip galvanized to match the corrosion resistance of the strap tie.
- What are the dimensions and material specs of the HST5HDG?
- The HST5HDG measures 5 in. wide by 21-1/4 in. long and is fabricated from 7-gauge steel, providing the heavy-duty strength required for load-bearing connections between wood girders and piles.
- Why is the hot-dip galvanized finish important for this strap tie?
- The hot-dip galvanized (HDG) coating provides extra corrosion resistance compared to standard finishes, making the HST5HDG well suited for exterior environments and applications involving treated wood, where exposure to moisture and chemicals can degrade less protected hardware.
- What types of structural applications is the HST5HDG designed for?
- The HST5HDG is a heavy, load-rated strap tie designed to support heavy, concentrated loads by creating strong connections between wood girders and piles. It is also engineered to resist wind and seismic forces, making it appropriate for structural reinforcement in demanding construction projects.
