The Simpson Strong-Tie Bolted Holdown is a structural holdown designed to anchor wood framing to concrete foundations and help prevent walls from lifting during high winds or seismic activity. This holdown anchor secures the end of a shearwall and transfers tension forces into the foundation, providing dependable uplift resistance for both professional contractors and experienced DIY builders.

Built for lateral load resistance, this holdown connector helps keep wall framing stable when side-to-side forces push against the structure. It’s commonly used as a post holdown or column holdown in residential wood framing projects where extra strength and security are needed.

Featuring a pre-deflected body, this uplift connector is engineered to reduce movement under load for a tighter, stronger connection. It can also support select deck framing and ledger connection applications where reliable structural anchorage is critical.

Key Features:

• Uplift Resistance: Helps prevent walls and posts from lifting under wind or seismic forces.
• Lateral Load Support: Adds stability to wall systems under side-to-side pressure.
• Pre-Deflected Design: Reduces movement under tension for a stronger connection.
• Bolted Installation: Attaches securely to studs, posts, or columns using bolts.
