Product Description
The Simpson ML28SS Medium L Angle is a 2 in. x 8 in., 12-gauge stainless-steel structural connector engineered to deliver reliable 90 deg. connections for medium- and heavy-duty framing and construction applications. Not only do angles make joints stronger, they also provide more consistent, straight corners - making the ML28SS an essential connector wherever structural integrity and dimensional accuracy matter. Built from stainless steel, this angle offers exceptional corrosion resistance, making it the right choice for exterior environments and applications involving treated lumber. The staggered fastener hole pattern minimizes wood splitting, while the opposing hole layout enables back-to-back installation without fastener interference, streamlining multi-connector assemblies.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What fasteners are recommended for installing the ML28SS?
- The ML28SS is designed to be installed with 1/4 in. x 1-1/2 in. Simpson Strong-Tie Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws, which help maximize the strength and versatility of the connection.
- Why is stainless steel used for this angle bracket?
- The stainless-steel construction offers extra corrosion resistance compared to standard steel, making the ML28SS well suited for exterior applications and projects involving treated lumber where moisture and chemical exposure can accelerate corrosion.
- Can two ML28SS angles be installed back-to-back?
- Yes. The ML28SS features an opposing hole pattern that allows for back-to-back installation without fastener interference, making it practical for assemblies that require connectors on both sides of a joint.
- What are the dimensions and gauge of the ML28SS?
- The ML28SS measures 2 in. x 8 in. with a height of 8 in. and is constructed from 12-gauge stainless steel, providing the strength needed for medium- and heavy-duty 90 deg. structural connections.
