Ask any framer in Connecticut what brand of connector they use and the answer is almost always Simpson Strong-Tie. International Building Supply carries Simpson Strong-Tie connectors and fasteners at our Naugatuck yard.
Simpson Strong-Tie pioneered the structural connector industry and has spent over 70 years engineering products that show up on building plans by name. Architects specify Simpson. Engineers specify Simpson. Inspectors know what to look for. That's what happens when a brand builds a product that performs and then tests it relentlessly until the industry adopts it as the standard.
The product range covers everything from basic joist hangers and post bases to hurricane ties, holdowns, and tension ties for seismic and wind load applications. For Connecticut framers working on coastal properties or elevated structures in Litchfield County where wind uplift is a real design consideration, Simpson's hurricane and strap tie products are the reliable answer that passes inspection without argument.
The fastener line is equally strong. Simpson Strong-Tie screws and nails are engineered specifically to work with their connectors, which matters for load ratings and warranty compliance. Using the right fastener isn't optional when the connector is structural.
We carry Simpson Strong-Tie connectors and fasteners at our Naugatuck yard. Net terms available for contractor accounts.
