Designed to be placed under and support piers that hold up your mobile home, Tie Down's ABS Foundation Pads offer an innovative and efficient solution for your foundation needs. These pads are lighter than traditional concrete, leading to labor and cost savings during installation. With larger pad sizes, they increase spacing, saving valuable time and materials. Environmentally conscious, these foundation pads are made from recycled materials, contributing to sustainability efforts. Their stackable design allows for easy expansion, creating larger pad areas and wider pier spacing, ideal for various applications. Intended for use with either block or steel piers, the ABS Foundation Pads come in both single and multi-pad configurations, catering to different soil capacities. They are approved for use by HUD 3285.312(3) and are listed and labeled by RADCO #1345, ensuring compliance with industry standards.

Tie Down's ABS Shims/Wedges, measuring 4 in. x 6 in. x 1 in., are expertly crafted to deliver impeccable support and alignment in pier structures. These shims excel in filling gaps and securing piers between the pier plate and main beam, ensuring a solid and level foundation for your structure. Precision is paramount. Whether it's leveling your home or bridging gaps between the base of the main beam and the top of the pier cap, our ABS Shims/Wedges deliver the perfect solution. Installation is straightforward and hassle-free. Following the placement of an 8" x 8" x 16" concrete block atop pier footings, determine the gap size between the pier and beam. This measurement dictates the number and size of shims required (minimum of 2 inches), maintaining a clearance of less than 1 inch between pier top and beam bottom. Our shims can be double-stacked—2 inches on 2 inches or 1 inch on 2 inches—to adapt precisely to your needs. For double pier plate stacks, conveniently position two cap plates side by side. ABS Shims/Wedges must be used in pairs, ensuring a reliable and uniform support system for your pier structure. Fully approved for use by HUD 3285.312(3), attesting to their superior quality and adherence to industry standards, our ABS Shims/Wedges are thoughtfully crafted from recycled ABS materials, aligning with environmentally friendly construction choices.
