ORNAMENTAL DECK TENSION TIE PC/ZMAX

It provides a strong, reliable lateral load connection that helps decks meet the International Residential Code (IRC) requirement for a 750 lb. connection to the supporting structure at four locations per deck. The DTT1PC is made from ZMAX galvanized steel for superior corrosion resistance with a stylish black powder coat for added beauty. Other models are available in ZMAX and Type 316 stainless steel, offering flexibility for a range of environmental conditions.
