Simpson Strong-Tie Hold Down-0756

High-Strength Timber-to-Concrete or Timber-to-Masonry Tension Tie

The Simpson Strong-Tie HTT Hold Down 0756 is a robust solution for creating high-performance tension connections between timber and concrete or masonry elements. Suitable for both new builds and retrofits, this hold down is ideal where timber structures are subject to significant uplift or lateral forces, such as in seismic or wind-prone areas.

Key Features

• Timber-to-Concrete/Masonry Connection
  Designed specifically to anchor timber elements securely to concrete or masonry structures, offering a dependable high-tension tie.

• Long Vertical Leg
  Facilitates the installation of multiple fasteners along vertical timber posts while maintaining correct spacing, as per structural standards.

• Monolithic Steel Construction
  Unique multi-ply seat is formed from a single piece of Z275 pre-galvanised mild steel, delivering superior strength at the anchorage point.

• Versatile Use
  Suitable for retrofitting or incorporating into new construction projects.

Benefits
