Designed for robust structural applications, the MTWS® Mass Timber Washer Strap from Simpson Strong-Tie offers a reliable solution for connecting cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels. This 7-gauge steel strap, finished with a galvanized coating for enhanced corrosion resistance, facilitates both panel-to-panel and panel-to-steel connections. Its design allows for full straps to be utilized effectively, or cut into half straps for versatile use, reducing the overall need for numerous fasteners while maintaining high capacity and structural integrity. Ideal for modern timber construction, this strap supports efficient assembly without the added expense of shop-fabricated steel plates, making it an essential component for any timber framing project.
