Simpson Strong-Tie HDUE3-SDS3 8-11/16" Galvanized Steel Holdown w/SDS Screws 20ct

The Simpson Strong-Tie HDUE3 is an 8-11/16 inch galvanized predeflected holdown designed to provide overturning resistance in wood construction applications. Manufactured from 14-gauge steel, it features an optimized screw pattern, a predeflected seat, and included Strong-Drive SDS connector screws. Supplied in a carton of 20, these holdowns are designed for shearwalls, braced wall panels, and other lateral force-resisting applications, including residential structures with higher design demands.

Key features

• Constructed from 14-gauge steel with a G90 zinc-galvanized finish for corrosion resistance.
• Predeflected seat eliminates deflection under load, while the extruded seat provides a greater cross-sectional steel section for added strength.
• Optimized screw patterns help reduce splitting at the end of the post while maximizing individual fastener capacity.
• Teardrop-shaped holes allow higher and more even load distribution, supporting improved holdown performance.
• Overlapping back plate increases fastener strength and shear values while helping prevent post splitting.
• Designed for higher load capacities than existing models, providing overturning resistance for shearwalls, braced wall panels, and other lateral force-resisting applications.

• 14 GAUGE STEEL HOLDOWN: The 8-11/16 inch StrongTie HDUE3 Predeflected Holdowns in this Carton of 20 install with included Strong-Tie SDS Connector Screws. Made of solid 14 gauge steel, each holdown is Zinc Galvanized-G90 for corrosion resistance.
• DESIGN UPGRADE: With higher load capacities than existing models, HDUE is an easy one-to-one replacement for our industry-leading HDU. The HDUE provides exceptional overturning resistance for shearwalls, braced wall panels and other lateral force-resisting applications in wood construction.
• KEY FEATURES: Predeflected seat eliminates deflection under load. Optimized screw patterns reduce splitting at the end of the post and maximize individual fastener capacity, plus, teardrop-shaped holes allow higher and more even distribution of load.
• DESIGNED FOR EXTRA STRENGTH: Overlapping back plate increases fastener strength and shear values, helping prevent post splitting, while the holdown's extruded seat adds a greater cross-sectional steel section for added strength.
• STRONG-TIE ENGINEERED: Designed and built for higher load capacity, our new patent-pending HDUE holdown is ideal for meeting the higher design demands of todays residential wood structures, such as three-story homes with more windows and reduced area for shearwalls.
