Perforated Plate HP 160x220x1.5mm Hot-Dip Galvanized Steel 25pcs Fast 833342

Description

The HP perforated plate (160x220x1.5 mm) is an essential component for creating stable, long-lasting timber structures of all kinds. This versatile connecting plate is engineered to meet rigorous strength and safety standards for assembling roof trusses, load-bearing beams, and other critical timber joints. By effectively distributing loads, the product helps create robust building structures capable of withstanding stress over time. Featuring precisely punched nail holes and high-quality steel, it provides a reliable foundation for your construction, streamlining the assembly process on the job site.

Features and Benefits

• Manufactured from hot-dip galvanized steel sheet (S250GD+Z275) for excellent corrosion resistance.
• Dimensions of 160x220x1.5 mm provide an optimal balance between strength and ease of installation.
• Equipped with evenly spaced 5.0 mm diameter nail holes for secure fastening.
• Designed to serve as a reliable connector plate in demanding timber structures.
• Produced by Fast with a focus on high precision and durability for professional construction projects.

Uses and Applications

Perforated connector plates are primarily used in the construction sector to join timber components in roof trusses, wall panels, and load-bearing frameworks. Their versatile design makes them ideal for new construction, renovation, and the reinforcement of existing timber structures. To achieve maximum stability and avoid eccentric loading, it is recommended to use two plates per joint—one on each side of the timber. This ensures symmetrical force transfer and prevents distortion at the connection point.

Material and Manufacturing

The product is made from hot-dip galvanized steel sheet (S250GD+Z275), a material renowned for its high yield strength and superior rust protection. The zinc coating provides effective defense against moisture and environmental stress, making these plates well-suited for use in unheated spaces or structures where condensation may occur. They are manufactured to strict tolerances, ensuring that every plate maintains a consistently high standard.

Mounting and Installation

For proper and secure attachment of the perforated plate, 4.0 mm anchor nails or 4.8 mm anchor screws are recommended. The nail holes have a diameter of 5.0 mm, designed to ensure minimal play and maximum grip for the fasteners. During installation, it is important to fill all designated holes—or follow the applicable structural drawings to achieve the calculated load-bearing capacity. Ensure that the plate sits flush against the timber surface and that the fasteners are driven in perpendicular to the surface to avoid inducing stress in the material.
