FINISH: Galvanized (G90)
SUBH
Simplified Design and Installation Through Innovation
Simpson Strong-Tie® SUBH and MSUBH wall stud bridging connectors for cold-formed steel (CFS) framing offer a compact profile that allows standard 1 5/8” studs to be sistered directly against adjacent studs. The LSUBH connector provides the same installation benefits of the SUBH/MSUBH connectors, and is suitable for many wind-bearing and load-bearing situations where the load demand is light to moderate. Many applications require only one screw, greatly reducing labor costs and increasing productivity.
KEY FEATURES
- Tested to include stud-web strength and stiffness in the tabulated design values
- Design values ensure compliance with AISI S100 Sections D3.2.1 and D3.3 for axially and laterally loaded studs
- Flexible design solutions for web thicknesses of 33 mil (20 ga.) through 97 mil (12 ga.) and stud sizes from 3 5/8” to 8”
- SUBH and LSUBH accommodates single studs 33 mil (20 ga.) to 54 mil (16 ga.)
- MSUBH accommodates single studs 54 mil (16 ga.) to 97 mil (12 ga.) and back-to-back built-up members ranging from 33 mil (20 ga.) to 54 mil (16 ga.)
MATERIAL:
- LSUBH3.25 - 33 mil (20 ga.)
- SUBH3.25 - 43 mil (18 ga.)
- MSUBH3.25 - 68 mil (14 ga.)
FINISH: Galvanized (G90)
TENSION BRIDGING
