The MTWS48 strap utilizes MTW45-8 washers and Strong-Drive SDCF Timber-CF (SDCF) fully-threaded countersunk-head screws. The combination provides a tension strap with high strength and stiffness that can be used in a variety of CLT diaphragm and wall applications. The MTWS48 is a 7-gauge high-capacity strap specifically designed to carry tension across a CLT floor or wall panel joint. The MTWS48 can also be used to attach CLT panels to steel attachment points when paired with a welded connection (designed by others).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh capacity reduces the need for expensive shop-fabricated steel plates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse of inclined SDCF screws and MTW45-8 washers reduces the number of fasteners needed to achieve the load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrap can be used for either CLT panel-to-panel connection or CLT panel-to-steel connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull straps may be used to connect CLT panels together\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull straps may be cut into half straps; these half straps may be used to connect CLT panels to steel attachment points (designed by others)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 5-7\/16 in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 47-5\/8 in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7-gauge steel (ASTM A653 Grade 33)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGalvanized (G90) for extra corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstall With:\u003c\/strong\u003e Install with (24) SDCF22512 screws and (24) MTW45-8 mass timber angled washers or (24) SDCF22858 screws and (24) MTW45-8 mass-timber angled washers\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Simpson Strong-Tie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53222906167590,"sku":"MTWS48-5.5","price":57.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/1582\/5958\/files\/MTWS48-5.5_00707392019190_Product_Photo_01_d383e04e-77fa-4ac7-a9df-3a338c69a83f.jpg?v=1779135953","url":"https:\/\/www.toolnut.com\/products\/simpson-strong-tie-mtws48-5-5-mtws-5-7-16-in-x-47-5-8-in-7-gauge-mass-timber-washer-strap","provider":"Tool Nut","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
