Product Description
TightStrap is a specialized tool designed for tensioning shear wall flat strap x-bracing in the field. Properly tensioned flat straps are crucial for the structural integrity and performance of shear walls. TightStrap ensures that the flat straps are as tight as possible before fastening, effectively removing any waviness or bowing in the shear wall. This pre-tensioning step guarantees that the shear wall performs as intended, meeting design specifications.
