SHH3/68-KT24

• Features

  • The bottom tabs transfer wind load from the horizontal window header to the jamb studs and help support the header assembly during installation
  • Tabulated loads are based on component assembly testing, which assists to mitigate design risk
  • To enable easier drywall installation, the gusset portion of the SHH is coped to avoid 1 1/2" (max.) track legs
  • The screw-hole layout at the jamb studs accommodates flange sizes of 1-5/8 in., 2 in., 2-1/2 in., 3 in. and 3-1/2 in. – this versatility allows the load to be evenly distributed along two lines of fasteners so that each jamb stud carries equal axial load with minimum eccentricity
  • Made from 68-mil/14-gauge steel intended for 3-5/8 in. or 4-in.-deep (max.) box headers and large-flange lay-in headers
  • Galvanized (G90) for extra corrosion resistance
  • Packaged as a box of 12 right-handed connectors and 12 left-handed connectors
