HSS Heavy Stud Shoe

The HSS is designed to reinforce notched, vertical studs in construction and is used to strengthen a wall stud that has a large hole drilled through it, typically to accommodate a plumbing waste line. This heavy stud shoe installs over the outside diameter of the pipe and is used as part of a total member replacement in structural applications. The HSS provides structural resistance in both tension and compression.

Key Features

  • Installs over pipe up to 2 3/8" outside diameter
  • Code listed for both building and plumbing codes
  • Made from durable galvanized steel to resist corrosion for lasting use
  • Reinforces studs which have been drilled or notched during construction
  • Designed to resist both tension and compression loads
  • Flared flanges that provide extra strength

Material

  • 16 gauge

Finish

  • Galvanized

Installation

  • Use all specified fasteners; see General Notes
  • Bend flanges at 90° angle during installation, then bend back and screw into position (screws included)
  • Bend flanges one cycle only
