This is a coiled utility strap designed for tension and uplift resistance. Model Number: CS20. If you need a long roll you can cut on site for custom lengths, this is the kind of hardware that makes more sense than stocking a pile of pre-cut straps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eFor the CS20 size, you get a 250 ft. roll made from 20-gauge steel with a 1-1\/4 in. width sized to fit nominal 2x lumber. In real terms, that means you can run the strap exactly where the framing layout demands and trim it to suit the span, repair, or reinforcement point instead of forcing a standard strap into a non-standard job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eSimpson positions the CS series for resisting tension and uplift loads, including roof uplift and shear wall overturning resistance. That matters on framing jobs where load path continuity is the whole point. A continuous strap gives you flexibility for field-cut lengths while still using a purpose-built connector from a brand contractors already trust for structural hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThe G90 galvanized finish is there for corrosion resistance in the environments this type of connector typically sees in general framing and structural reinforcement work. It is not just about shelf life. Galvanizing helps the strap hold up over time in standard jobsite and building conditions where bare steel would be the wrong call.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eAnother practical advantage is efficiency. Simpson specifically calls the CS straps a cost-effective alternative to pre-cut straps, and that is easy to understand once you are working through multiple tie locations with different required lengths. One roll can cover a lot of layout conditions, especially on smaller projects, punch-list repairs, or custom reinforcement work where exact length changes from spot to spot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eInstallation details matter with this kind of product. Simpson notes that you should use all specified fasteners and follow applicable code requirements for minimum edge and end distances. Lowe's also identifies installation with 10d or 8d common nails for this model. The basic takeaway is simple: the strap itself gives you flexibility, but the final performance still depends on using the correct fasteners and following the published fastening pattern for the application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThis coiled strap is a strong fit for framers, remodelers, general contractors, and serious DIY users handling structural repairs, uplift reinforcement, or custom wood framing connections. If you want a fixed-length connector, buy a fixed-length strap. If you want one roll that can handle a wide range of tie lengths on the job, the CS20 is the more useful option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n  \u003cdetails id=\"product-benefits-1\" class=\"acc\"\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTrim It for the Exact Connection\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"acc-body\"\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n        \u003cdiv class=\"img\"\u003e\n          \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/ssttoolbox.widen.net\/content\/m5pnikswq4\/jpeg\/C_CS14-R_ProdPho_Pho_Prod_CoiledStrap_C0.jpeg?position=c\u0026amp;color=ffffffff\u0026amp;u=cjmyin\" alt=\"Simpson Strong-Tie CS20 Coiled Strap roll shown as a galvanized steel continuous framing strap for custom cut-to-length structural tie work\" class=\"tnblock-img\"\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \u003cdiv class=\"copy\"\u003e\n          \u003cp\u003eThe biggest reason to buy a coiled strap instead of a fixed strap is flexibility.
