Product Description
The Simpson S/HTC Heavy Truss Clip is a cold-formed steel connector engineered by Simpson Strong-Tie to deliver a slotted connection from the truss or joist to the top track wherever isolation of two members is required. Formed from 18 ga. steel and finished with a G90 zinc galvanized coating, this heavy truss clip is built to handle the structural demands of cold-formed steel framing on projects of any scale - from light-gauge rafter assemblies to full truss systems.
Key Features
- 3-21/32 in. inside width - sized to fit standard cold-formed steel truss and joist members securely within the clip without modification
- 43 mil (18 ga.) steel construction - provides the heavy-duty strength needed to maintain a reliable structural connection in demanding CFS framing applications
- G90 zinc galvanized finish - delivers enhanced corrosion resistance, making this truss clip a dependable choice in environments where long-term performance matters
- Slotted connection design - allows controlled isolation between the truss or joist and the top track, accommodating movement and helping protect the overall framing assembly
Why This Product
- Purpose-built for cold-formed steel framing - designed specifically for CFS applications including trusses and rafters, so it integrates cleanly with light-gauge steel construction without the guesswork of adapting a generic connector
- Engineered isolation connection - the slotted design intentionally separates two structural members, reducing the transfer of stress between the truss or joist and the top track where that isolation is required by design
- Straightforward installation - installs with #8 screws into both the top track and the truss, keeping the fastening process simple and consistent with standard CFS fastener practices
- Trusted Simpson Strong-Tie engineering - part of a proven lineup of cold-formed steel connectors built to meet the strength and performance requirements of professional framing crews
