Shear load connector STS/SSTS

The STS system is a compact thermal break, typically used for connecting steel balconies to structural steel frames but is equally suitable for other steel-to-steel applications. It comprises tension and compression components within a single compact unit, wrapped in polystyrene insulation. Each unit features four A4 stainless steel fixing studs and a thermoset plate at each steel interface. The system is available in three standard stud sizes to accommodate a wide range of loads. Manufactured to order, the vertical centres of the fixing studs can be specified to suit the exact requirements of the application.
