Product Description
Simpson PGT2E-R50 12-Gauge Pipe Grip Tie for 2 in. Pipe (50-Pack)
The Simpson Strong-Tie PGT2E Pipe Grip Tie makes it easy to attach wood fence rails to metal fence posts, giving you the classic look of a wood fence combined with the lasting durability of galvanized steel posts. Because galvanized steel posts resist the rot and deterioration that plague traditional wood posts, this two-piece connector system helps extend the overall life of your fence - whether you're building new or replacing damaged wooden posts. The PGT design is suitable for standard line installations as well as corners and splices, making it a versatile solution for virtually any residential or commercial wood-rail fence project. This listing includes a full carton of 50 Pipe Grip Ties (model PGT2E) along with all required hardware for a complete installation.
Key Features
- Two-Piece Design for a Solid Connection: The attachment plate and front strap work together to create a firm, reliable connection between the fence stringer and the post.
- Faster Installation: Installs faster than other two-piece fence-post brackets on the market.
- Safer to Use: Eliminates protruding carriage bolts and sharp corners that create hazards during and after installation.
- Unique Locking Tab: The strap features a locking tab design so that only one screw is needed to fasten it securely.
- Designed for 2 in. Pipe: Fits vertical pipes with a 2-3/8 in. outside diameter; corners are offset to allow for correct rail alignment.
- Recommended Use Rate: Use 3 to 4 PGTs per pipe; line up to string line for consistent, professional results.
- 12-Gauge Steel Construction: Heavy-duty 12-gauge steel provides the structural integrity required for fence applications.
- G90 Galvanized Coating: Zinc galvanized to the G90 standard for enhanced corrosion resistance in outdoor environments.
- Made in the United States: Manufactured domestically to Simpson Strong-Tie quality standards.
