Product Description
The Simpson A23Z 2 in. x 1-1/2 in. x 2-3/4 in. ZMAX Galvanized Angle is a dependable metal connector from Simpson built to reinforce 90 deg. joints across a wide range of light-duty construction and home repair projects. Crafted from 18-gauge steel and finished with a ZMAX zinc coating, this angle bracket delivers reliable strength and enhanced corrosion resistance, making it a practical choice for exterior applications, high-moisture environments, and connections involving treated wood.
Key Features
- Versatile connector for various 90 deg. connections and home repair projects - handles a broad range of framing, bracing, and repair tasks with a single consistent solution
- Stronger than angled nailing or screw fastening alone - the solid steel angle distributes load more effectively across the joint, resulting in a more reliable structural connection
- Helps ensure joints are consistently straight and strong - the rigid form guides alignment so corners come out square and secure every time
- Made from 18-gauge steel - provides a proven level of strength suited for light-duty jobs and projects where a dependable structural connection is needed
- ZMAX galvanization offers extra corrosion resistance for exterior and treated-wood applications - the advanced zinc coating outperforms standard galvanized finishes in outdoor and moisture-prone environments, helping the connector hold up over time
Why This Product
- Built for outdoor and treated-wood use - the ZMAX zinc-coated finish provides extra protection against corrosion compared to standard galvanized connectors, making this angle bracket a smart choice wherever moisture or treated lumber is a factor
- A stronger alternative to nailing or screwing alone - by spanning both sides of a 90 deg. joint, this steel angle connector adds structural integrity that angled fastening simply cannot match on its own
- Promotes straight, consistent corners - the fixed angle geometry helps keep joints aligned during assembly, reducing the risk of uneven or weakened connections on repair and construction projects
- American-made quality from a trusted connector brand - Simpson designs this angle to work with commonly available fasteners such as 10d x 1-1/2 in. nails or #9 x 1-1/2 in. Strong-Drive SD screws, so installation stays straightforward from start to finish
