Simpson SBR43-R20 Structural Spacer Bracers 8211 G90 Galvanized Pkg 20

Simpson Strong-Tie introduces the SBR spacer bracers for cold-formed steel construction. These spacer bracers reduce the installed cost of cold-formed steel stud walls by enabling faster stud layout while minimizing the need for bridging clips. The SBR is designed for structural exterior walls to provide exterior support which aids in withstanding stress from wind or other environmental factors. Provides bracing along the length of the stud, and for head-of-wall slip conditions. Designed for 3-5/8\” and 6\” studs with thickness ranging from 14 gauge to 20 gauge, these spacer bracers fit a variety of applications. The SBR also comes with prepunched slots that eliminate the need to use bridging clips with on-module studs. The SBR spacer bracers come with bracing load data based on assembly testing, thus mitigating risk for designers and maximizing confidence in design specs. In fact, the SBR are the only spacer bracers on the market with tabulated design values based on assembly tests, making it one of Simpson Strong-Tie\’s newest, most trusted products! Installation: Spacer bracers are fed through the stud knockout at a 90 angle until studs align with spacer-bracer slots. With the slots engaging the stud web, the spacer bracer is then rotated back to the flat position so the slotted flanges are on the bottom. For off-layout or end-of-run studs where a spacer-bracer slot does not engage a stud, manually snip the spacer-bracer flanges with a 1/2\”-deep slot and secure the spacer bracer to the stud with Simpson Strong-Tie LSSC or RCA connectors. Use all specified fasteners. Wear gloves while handling and installing spacer bracers. California Residents: WARNING
