Roof Truss and Rafter Connectors, Ties, and Straps

This product's information may differ depending on the category of use. You are currently viewing details related to Roof Truss and Rafter Connectors, Ties, and Straps.

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 (G90)

Installation

  • Use all specified fasteners; see General Notes
  • Field skewable; bend one time only
  • CFS framing must be constrained against rotation when using a single LS per connection
