L L-Shaped Angle

Joist Framing Connectors

This product's information may differ depending on the category of use. You are currently viewing details related to Joist Framing Connectors. You can also view product information related to the categories of: Reinforcing and Skewable Angles, Rigid Connectors for Cold-Formed Steel Construction

The L angle is a general utility-reinforcing connector with multiple uses. The durable design and fastening options of these load-rated skewable angles make them an ideal option compared to field-fabricated clip angles. The L angle has well-defined fastener locations, and testing ensures that the tabulated load values account for connection eccentricities.

Key Features

  • Staggered nail pattern reduces the possibility for splitting
  • Available in multiple sizes to ensure proper selection for the specific use
  • Load rated for wood and cold-formed steel applications

Material

  • 54 mil (16 ga.)

Finish

  • Galvanized (G90)

Installation

  • Use all specified fasteners; see General Notes
  • Nail the L angle’s wider leg into the joist to ensure table loads and allow correct nailing
