Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the "-REV" designation mean for the HTS16-REV?
- The "-REV" designation indicates that the bend on this twist strap is reversed compared to the standard HTS configuration. This reverse bend orientation accommodates specific framing conditions where the standard bend direction would not align properly with the members being connected.
- What fasteners are required to install the HTS16-REV?
- Installation requires two types of nails: Nails 0.148" x 3" and Nails 0.148" x 1-1/2". Use all specified fasteners, with half into each member being connected, to achieve the listed loads.
- Does the HTS16-REV need to be wrapped over the truss to achieve its rated load?
- No. Straps do not need to be wrapped over the truss to achieve the allowable load, making installation more straightforward at truss heel and rafter connections.
- What is the coating on the HTS16-REV and why does it matter?
- The HTS16-REV features a Zinc Galvanized, G90 coating. This coating provides corrosion resistance, helping to protect the strap and maintain structural integrity over the life of the installation.
