URM structures may have missing or inadequate ties between masonry veneer wythes and/or between the veneer and the back-up material. As an alternative to drilled adhesive dowels, Simpson Strong-Tie’s Heli-Tie serves as a cost effective retrofit veneer tie. The Heli-Tie is a stainless steel helical tie that is easily installed into a pre-drilled hole. During the installation process the stitching ties are countersunk into the veneer face by way of the installation tool making for an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
