Product Description
The Simpson Rigid Connector Angle is a general-purpose L-shaped clip angle engineered for a wide range of cold-formed steel construction applications. Built to Simpson Strong-Tie's rigorous quality and performance standards, this versatile steel angle connector is designed to make structural connections stronger, safer, and faster to complete - whether you're working on header and sill connections, jamb stud reinforcement, u-channel bridging, stud-blocking, bypass curtain-wall framing, or other light-gauge steel framing tasks. Prepunched holes mean every fastener goes in quickly and lands exactly where it needs to, cutting down on layout time and labor on the job site. This package includes 90 individual clip angles, each measuring 2 in. x 2 in. x 5 in., providing a consistent, job-ready supply for production framing and commercial construction work.
Key Features
- Versatile cold-formed steel applications - Compatible with header/sill connections to jamb studs, jamb stud reinforcement at track, u-channel bridging, stud-blocking, bypass curtain-wall framing, and more, so one connector type handles a wide variety of structural tasks on the same job.
- Prepunched holes for fastener attachment - Holes are factory-located for quick and accurate screw placement, reducing layout steps and speeding up installation across repetitive connections.
- 16-gauge (54 mil) steel construction - Heavier-gauge material delivers the rigidity and load-carrying capacity required for structural cold-formed steel framing connections.
- G90 zinc galvanized finish - The galvanized coating provides extra corrosion resistance, helping the connector hold up in demanding job-site conditions and extending the service life of the connection.
- 90-piece packaging - A bulk quantity of same-size clip angles keeps production framing crews supplied and minimizes trips back to the supply area during high-volume work.
Why This Product
- Engineered and tested to perform - Simpson Strong-Tie connectors are manufactured to the highest quality standards and tested to ensure reliable structural performance, giving contractors and builders confidence in every connection they make.
- One clip angle, many applications - From jamb stud reinforcement and sill connections to u-channel bridging and curtain-wall framing, this rigid connector angle handles multiple cold-formed steel connection types, reducing the number of different hardware items needed on a project.
- Faster installation built into the design - Prepunched holes eliminate field drilling and guesswork, letting crews drive #10 screws directly into pre-located positions and move on - a real advantage when working through repetitive light-gauge steel framing assemblies.
- Corrosion-resistant for lasting durability - The G90 galvanized coating goes beyond basic protection, making these clip angles a dependable long-term choice for cold-formed steel construction where moisture exposure is a concern.
