Simpson Strong Tie TP35 Tie Plate 3x5 G90 Galvanized

Product Description

The SIMPSON STRONG TIE TP35 is a 3-inch by 5-inch steel tie plate designed to reinforce and connect wood framing members at joints, splices, and intersections. Finished with a G90 galvanized coating, it delivers improved corrosion resistance suited for both interior framing and applications where moisture exposure is a concern. The TP35 ships in a package quantity of 100 plates per unit of measure. Licensed contractors, structural carpenters, and general framing crews install this hardware as part of standard wood-frame construction to meet load-transfer and connection requirements specified in structural drawings or building codes.

The TP35 is used in residential and light commercial wood-frame construction where reliable joint reinforcement is required. Typical applications include overlapping or splicing dimensional lumber at walls, floors, and roof assemblies. The G90 galvanized finish makes it appropriate for treated-lumber environments and locations subject to intermittent moisture. It is sold in boxes of 100, making it practical for production framing and multi-unit projects where consistent hardware specification is required across many connections.

Key Features

• 3-inch by 5-inch plate dimensions provide a broad bearing surface for joint reinforcement
• G90 galvanized coating delivers enhanced corrosion resistance compared to standard zinc plating
• Compatible with treated lumber applications where corrosion-resistant hardware is specified
• Sold in quantities of 100 plates per package for efficient production framing use
• Flat plate profile allows flush installation across a wide range of framing connections

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style structural connector for use in standard wood-frame residential and light commercial construction where a 3-inch by 5-inch tie plate with G90 galvanized coating is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed carpenters or structural contractors in accordance with applicable building codes and project structural drawings. Power down or de-energize any nearby electrical systems before working in framing cavities. Fasten with fasteners meeting the size, type, and quantity specified on the structural schedule or connector manufacturer load tables. Do not substitute fastener type or quantity, as doing so affects rated load values.
