These are nice and sturdy stud shoes. I'd feel comfortable using them in my house.They are about 1/16 thick. I don't think they're galvanized, I can't scrape any finish off.I don't think I'd want to go through a structural inspection with these. I think they need some kind of engineering listing printed on them. They have no printing at all.Overall, I think they're great an I'm going to use them where there are big penetrations. If you want to be super conservative, I suppose you could use one on each side of the stud.I think they're a good bargain.

The Bueyfolt 20 Packs Metal Stud Shoes measure .0375" Inches in thickness per my digital caliper. The code requirement for protection of pipes is steel a minimum of .0575".Simply put, you'll likely fail an inspection using these plates.Otherwise, they're well-built. As for adequate structural strength for compensating for the removed wood, your inspector or an engineer or architect should make the determination.
