Stiffeners Splice
Refer to the below information to determine the gauge of the splice needed to connect the stiffeners.

Call Out Part Number
Description Length Available Gauges
14 CTS-4035XX Stiffener splice 9.938" (25.24 cm) 12, 14
15 CTS-4073XX Stiffener splice 15.906" (40.40 cm) 10
Refer to the below chart to determine the gauge of the splice, which is determined by the gauge of the
stiffeners that are being connected. If connecting a heavier gauge to a lighter gauge stiffener, always use
the heavier gauge splice for the 13 to 12, 8 to 6 gauge connections.
For example: If connecting a 13 gauge stiffener to a 12 gauge stiffener, use the 12 gauge splice. If
connecting an 8 gauge stiffener to a 6 gauge stiffener, use the 10 gauge splice.
