The Simpson Strong-Tie HYS hybrid strut is the only CFS strut available on the market designed and tested for use as either a side or a rigid clip. This connector is commonly used at the bottom of a steel beam to accommodate large standoff conditions. It can be attached to the structure with screws, powder-actuated fasteners, or welds. This kit includes (25) HYS15/68 connectors and (83) XLSH78B1414 #14 shouldered screws for slide-clip applications.
