Simpson Strong-Tie® RCKW3-R10 Kneewall Connector, 7 ga, 3-1/2 in L x 3 in W, Steel

Simpson Strong-Tie® Kneewall connector, series: RCKW, 7 ga, 3-1/2 in length, 3 in width, steel, G90 galvanized. The Simpson Strong-Tie® RCKW rigid connectors have been developed to resist overturning moment at the base of exterior kneewalls and parapets as well as interior partial-height walls. These connectors offer a unique anchor-hole pattern that permits anchorage to both concrete and structural steel, with the larger hole designed to accommodate 1/2 in diameter concrete screws such as the Simpson Strong-Tie® Titen HD®.

The RCKWS is a heavy 171 mil (7 ga) stiffener that nests onto the RCKW clip
• The screw holes and anchor holes in the stiffener line up with those in the RCKW clip, making fastener and anchor installation a snap
• Anchorage legs incorporate stiffened flanges, improving overturning moment resistance
• Large-diameter anchor hole accommodates 1/2 in dia concrete screws and wedge anchors, such as the Simpson Strong-Tie® Titen® HD heavy duty screw and the Strong-Bolt® 2 wedge anchor
• Additional smaller-diameter anchor holes enable attachment to structural steel through use of No. 12 self-drilling screws
• Attachment to CMU can be achieved with use of Titen® concrete and masonry screws
• The RCKW clip and RCKWS stiffener are sold separately
