Simpson Strong-Tie Reinforcing Angle - Galvanized, Improves Strength - 1-1/2" x 1-1/2" x 1/8"

The Simpson Strong-Tie L70Z Reinforcing Angle is designed to provide reliable support and improved strength for construction projects. This rigid tie angle features a staggered nail pattern to help reduce the risk of wood splitting, making it ideal for reinforcing connections in joists and beams. The L70Z simpson reinforce angle bracket is made from 16-gauge galvanized steel, offering durability and corrosion resistance for long-lasting performance. Its field-adjustable design allows for angles from 0 to 135 degrees, and the embossed bend section on the gusset angles adds extra strength where needed. For installation, use all specified fasteners as outlined in the general notes, and ensure the joist is constrained against rotation, such as with solid blocking, when using a single LS per connection. The wider leg of the L angle should be nailed into the joist to achieve the correct load capacity. Some products in this series may be installed with Strong-Drive SD Structural Connector screws. The Simpson Strong-Tie L70Z is a trusted choice for reinforcing metal angles in residential and commercial construction, providing dependable support for a variety of framing applications.
