Simpson StrongTie's WBAC Wood Backing Steel Connector stands out for marrying simplicity with structural integrity in mixed-material wall construction. Its universal fit works across standard stud spacings, erasing guesswork and permitting backward or forward installation depending on project flow. Engineered and load-tested per ICC-ES AC261 standards, this connector assures engineers and builders of consistent performance under demanding interior finishing conditions. The G90 galvanized finish ensures longevity in typical indoor environments, while the robust 20ga. steel resists deformation during driving and handling. Functionally designed for seamless integration, the WBAC module upgrades framed wall efficiency.
