Simpson Strong-Tie MTS16Z MTS 16 in. 16-Gauge ZMAX® Galvanized Medium Twist Strap

Simpson Strong-Tie straps and plates join and reinforce joints with simple, versatile solutions for a wide range of connections. The MTS provides a tension connection between two members. This economical twist strap resists moderate uplift loads at the rafter or heel of a truss. The MTS has a small bend section to reduce interference at the transition points between the two members.

This Simpson product is designed for construction, connector, fastening, anchoring, and structural applications where dependable performance, durability, and jobsite-ready installation matter.
