- Faster to install than other floor-to-floor connection methods — drive the screw, install the take-up washer and the connection is made from plate-to-plate
- Shrinkage compensation ensures a tight connection even after initial shrinkage and settlement occur
- Installs from inside the structure, eliminating exterior work on upper stories and enhancing job safety
- Fastening can be done before or after exterior sheathing is applied for added flexibility
- One screw length can be used for multiple floor depths, reducing the need for many screw lengths
- Drive Type: 5/16 in. Hex
- Length: 20 in.
- E-coat electrocoating is recommended for dry, low-corrosion environments
- Quantity: 25
- Kit includes all required installation hardware: (25) Strong-Drive SDWF Floor-to-Floor screws, (25) TUW take-up washers, (100) Strong-Drive SD Connector screws (#9), 5/16 in. hex driver bit, screw depth guide to ensure proper SDWF engagement with TUW
The Strong-Drive SDWF Floor-to-Floor screw is designed to simplify the wind-uplift restraint connection while providing superior performance over the life of the structure. The unique design of the SDWF enables it to attach upper and lower walls together from the top, spanning the floor system and providing an easy-to-install connection within the continuous uplift load path of the structure. The innovative Take-Up Washer (TUW) plays a key role in the long-term performance of the SDWF when installed between the screw head and the sole plate of the upper floor.
