HDQ8-SDS3HDG Holdown

HDQ8-SDS3HDG Holdown

The HHDQ series of holdowns combines low deflection and high loads with ease of installation. The unique seat design of the HDQ8 greatly minimizes deflection under load. Both styles of holdown employ the Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws which install easily, reduce fastener slip and provide a greater net section when compared to bolts. They may be installed either flush or raised off the mudsill without a reduction in load value.
