Engineered for robust seismic performance, the SCS 2 in. x 6 in. x 5 in. seismic bypass framing slide clip from Simpson Strong-Tie is a critical component in construction applications where stability is paramount. Crafted from durable 14-gauge steel and galvanized for enhanced corrosion resistance, this clip ensures longevity and reliability in demanding environments. The innovative design features slide slots that accommodate shouldered washer screws, allowing for up to 1 inch of vertical deflection, which is essential for structures prone to seismic activity. Furthermore, the dual-function clip comes with prepunched slots for sliding applications and small round holes for fixed applications, offering versatility for various framing needs. Precision-located ribs also enhance strength while maintaining ductility, making this product an essential choice for builders seeking quality and performance in seismic conditions.
Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie® SCS is a hybrid clip designed specifically to allow both slide-clip or fixed-clip applications in areas of high seismic activity. Everything about the SCS clip — from its heavy-duty steel manufacturing to its strategically placed darts to the location of its fastener slots and holes — has been engineered to provide exceptional resistance to in-plane seismic loads. Backed by our real-world, full-scale cyclic testing, the SCS seismic clip delivers the highest seismic loads in the industry. Slide-clip testing shows that attachment at the first slot is most critical to in-plane capacity, the SCS is designed to accommodate two large washer screws (included) at the first slot attached to the stud. The hole types and locations maximize the SCS clip’s versatility, with three prepunched oblong slots for slide-clip applications and a pattern of round holes allowing fixed-clip options to meet a range of load needs.
