Simpson Strong-Tie HTTH6.5 Heavy-Tension Tie

The HHTH6.5 is the industry’s first nailed-down holddown to achieve a 6,500 pound allowable load.

The HTTH6.5 has been added to Simpson Strong-Tie’s lineup of HTT heavy-tension ties. The model is the industry’s first nailed-down holddown to achieve a 6,500 pound allowable load. Suitable for residential construction and light-frame wood commercial buildings, the HTTH6.5 single-piece tension tie features a four-fold seat that reduces deflection, a tapered base to optimize strength and an optimal nailing pattern that reduces splitting at the end of the post and maximizes individual fastener capacity. It fastens with nails (in standard sizes for pneumatic nailers) or Strong-Drive SD connector screws. The allowable load is up to 6,500 lb. with nails and increases to 7,650 lb. when installed with SD screws.
