SSH

Hexagon Head Connector Screw Impreg®+

SSH is used together with connectors where high load capability is required. The conical shape under the head ensures full contact with the connector, creating a firm assembly. The superior Impreg®+ coating makes the screw suitable for exterior use. The type 17 cut point prevents timber from splitting, and the milling thread and serrated thread reduce the insertion torque. SSH has both 6 lobe drive and a hexagonal head, enabling installation both with torx bits or hex wrench.

Shear capacities are given for thick (tst = d) and thin (tst = 0,5xd) steel plates under the following configurations:

  • Load axis at 0° from timber grain Rv.0°.k
  • Load axis at 90° from timber grain Rv.90°.k

These capacities are valid for C24 timber grades or higher.
For intermediate steel thicknesses, capacities shall be calculated by linear interpolation between the limiting thin and thick plate values.
The pre-drilled hypothesis for capacity and distances calculation is fulfilled.
