Product Details
The PSCA is designed to brace unsupported sheathing edges when sheathing meets edge to edge without a rafter for support. This light sheathing clip provides a 1/8" gap to address shrinkage and expansion of roof sheathing. Inserted over the edges of adjacent plywood panels, the PSCA reduces deflection and keeps panels even to maintain a level plane on the structure.
