SWII Headers are pre-engineered to produce
the ultimate in structural capacity and versatility. They are
dimensionally stable which means no shimming is needed for tight
fits. Thanks to an intricate combination of lumber and strand
board in the manufacturing process, SWII Headers are lightweight,
making them easy to handle on the job site and easy to cut with
standard tools.
Pre-insulated SWII Headers replace
conventional lumber and plywood headers in home-building and light
commercial or industrial construction projects. Each SWII
Header features pre-installed expanded polystyrene insulation with
an R-value of 18. Once enclosed by sheathing and sheetrock,
that value increases to R-20.
Versatility is an added bonus with Superior Wood Systems
prefabricated headers. Un-insulated headers can be used as
clear span joists, while a
2 x 4 insulated header makes an excellent rim joist. |
