Product Details
The LS connector is a cost-effective method for connecting roof rafters to hip rafters. The durable design and fastening options of these load-rated skewable angles make them an ideal option compared to field-fabricated clip angles. The LS has well-defined fastener locations, and testing ensures that the tabulated load values account for connection eccentricities.
Key Features
The connectors are general utility-reinforcing angles with multiple uses
Field-adjustable angles from 0° to 135° allow for attaching members intersecting at angles
Perfect angle series for many household repairs and DIY projects
Material
43 mil (18 ga.)
Finish
Galvanized or ZMAX®; some models available in stainless steel. See Corrosion Information
Installation
Use all specified fasteners; see General Notes
Field skewable; bend one time only
