Simpson Strong-Tie MASA MASA 16-Gauge Galvanized Mudsill Anchor

• Attaches easily to the concrete form for quick installation
• Lays flat on the form board so there is no anchor bolt to finish around
• No labor costs involved in drilling plates and aligning holes
• Flat design eliminates chances of modification in prefabricated walls
• Eliminates the need to notch studs due the anchor bolts being placed where it will interfere
• Reduces the chance of having to retrofit anchors because of missing or misplaced anchor bolts
• Minimum MASA end distance is 4 in. and minimum center-to-center spacing is 8 in. for full load
• Made from 16-gauge steel
• Galvanized (G90) for extra corrosion resistance

Mudsill anchors have always been a time-saving alternative to anchor bolts, and the MASA anchor provides even greater load-carrying capacity alternative for 5/8-in. and 1/2-in. mudsill anchor bolts on 2x, double-2x and 3x mudsills. It also eliminates the need for 3-in. square plate washers for seismic design and, in some cases, has load capacities that meet or exceed the parallel and perpendicular to plate shear capacity of other cast-in-place anchors. Two versions of the MASA are available — the standard MASA for installation on standard forms and the MASAP for panelized forms.
