Perforated Plate HP 40x160x1.5mm Hot-Dip Galvanized Steel 100pcs Fast 833302
Description
Perforated plates are versatile construction connectors that play a crucial role in modern timber construction and carpentry. This model, measuring 40x160x1.5 mm, is designed to provide strong and reliable connections in various types of timber structures. These plates are primarily used as joining plates when assembling components such as roof trusses, studs, and other load-bearing timber elements that require additional stability. By effectively distributing loads across different parts of the structure, the connector contributes to greater overall safety.
This product is ideally suited for both small-scale renovation projects and larger construction structures. It offers a wide range of applications in areas such as roof construction and structural framing, where timber components need to be joined in a secure and professional manner.
High-Quality Material and Surface Treatment
The connector is manufactured from hot-dip galvanized sheet steel, grade S250GD+Z275. This type of steel offers an excellent combination of high strength and good formability, essential for withstanding significant mechanical stress in demanding environments. The 275 g/m² zinc coating provides effective corrosion protection, resisting rust under typical moisture and weather conditions. Consequently, the connector retains its mechanical properties over time, even in environments subject to fluctuating temperatures and humidity levels.
Installation and Fastening
To ensure optimal load-bearing capacity and structural safety, it is essential to use the correct fasteners. The nail holes have a diameter of 5.0 mm and are designed for standard connector screws or anchor nails. Recommended fasteners for this model include 4.0 mm anchor nails or 4.8 mm connector screws; these ensure a secure grip within the timber, preventing the connection from yielding under load.
During installation, it is crucial to use two plates per joint—one on each side—to avoid eccentric loading. By positioning the plates symmetrically on both sides of the timber, forces are distributed evenly across the joint, which prevents uneven loading and maximizes the total load-bearing capacity of the connection.
