Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie LS50 LS 4-7/8 in. 18-Gauge Galvanized Adjustable L Angle is a load-rated, field-skewable reinforcing angle engineered by Simpson Strong-Tie as a cost-effective method for connecting roof rafters to hip rafters. Its durable design and well-defined fastener locations make it a superior alternative to field-fabricated clip angles, with tested tabulated load values that account for connection eccentricities.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What angle range can the LS50 be adjusted to in the field?
- The LS50 is field-adjustable from 0 deg. to 135 deg., allowing it to accommodate framing members that intersect at a wide variety of angles. Note that it should be bent one time only.
- What fasteners should be used to install the LS50?
- The LS50 should be installed with 10d common nails or #9 x 1-1/2 in. Strong-Drive SD screws, as specified by Simpson Strong-Tie.
- What corrosion protection does the LS50 have?
- The LS50 is coated with a Zinc Galvanized G90 finish, providing an extra layer of corrosion resistance suitable for typical construction environments.
- Is any special constraint required when installing the LS50 for rafter connections?
- Yes. The joist must be constrained against rotation - for example, with solid blocking - when using a single LS per connection to ensure proper load transfer and structural performance.
