Product Features
- IDEAL SIZING AND DURABILITY: Made from 16-gauge galvanized steel, our stud shoes offer exceptional strength and corrosion resistance. They are suitable for double 2x studs and can accommodate pipes up to 2 3/8" outside diameter.
- REINFORCES WEAKENED STUDS: When you need to drill through studs to run pipes (like drain pipes or waste pipes) or electrical wiring, our stud shoes strengthen the weakened studs. This prevents the drilled holes from compromising the structural integrity.
- INSPECTOR APPROVED: When the size and placement of drilled holes in your studs exceed IBC and IRC code limits, using our stud shoes is a must to reinforce the studs. Our metal stud shoes help you pass structural inspections and ensure codes compliance.
- BOTH-SIDED PROTECTION FOR YOUR WIRES: Unlike traditional nail plates electrical that require installation on both sides of the stud, our stud wire protector only needs to be installed in the center with the slot facing up. It provides superior protection for cables against nails or screws penetration.
- EASY INSTALLATION WITH SPIKED TIPS: Simply drill a 1" hole in the stud and tap the nail guard in place using a hammer. The two sharp prongs securely embed into the wood, keeping the nail protector in place. Installation is quick and easy, and it can be done before or after wiring.
