SS Typical SS3 Installation Typical SS1 Installation HSS US Patent 6,176,057 STEP 2 Bend HSS (HSS2-3 shown) flanges one time only. Screw into position. STEP 1 Install HSS (HSS2-3 shown) over stud with flanges bent at a 90 angle. Stud Shoes reinforce studs notched in construction. They are NOT a total replacement of removed material. Installs over pipe up to 2 outside diameter. HSS2-3 is designed for triple 2x studs. HSS Stud Shoes provide tension load capacity as well as increased compression loads. Flared flange provides greater strength. MATERIAL: 16 gauge. FINISH: Galvanized. INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. HSS: Bend flanges at 90 angle during installation, then bend back and screw into position (screws supplied). Bend flanges one cycle only. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.
