Product Description
Simpson Strong-Tie HL43HDG Heavy L-Shaped Angle - 4 x 3 Hot-Dip Galvanized
The Simpson Strong-Tie HL43HDG Heavy L-Shaped Angle is a robust, hot-dip galvanized connector engineered to reinforce right-angle connections between wood members in a wide range of structural and framing applications. With its classic 90 deg. L-shaped profile and heavy-gauge construction, this multipurpose connector promotes corner stability, resists uplift and lateral forces, and helps drive standardization and construction economy on the job site. Manufactured in the United States, the HL43HDG delivers dependable performance where two members meet at a 90 deg. angle.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What type of coating does the HL43HDG have, and why does it matter?
- The HL43HDG features a hot-dip galvanized coating, which provides enhanced corrosion resistance compared to standard galvanized finishes. This makes it well suited for applications where exposure to moisture or the elements is a concern.
- What fasteners are required to install the HL43HDG?
- Installation requires two 3/4 in. diameter bolts. Lag screws of equal diameter and a minimum length of 5 in. may be substituted for bolts in the beam with no reduction in load.
- Can the HL43HDG achieve lateral loads in both directions?
- Yes. When the HL43HDG connectors are installed in pairs, they can achieve lateral loads in both directions, making paired installation the recommended approach for applications requiring bidirectional lateral resistance.
- What are the dimensions of the HL43HDG?
- The HL43HDG has a Width-1 of 4-1/4 in., a Width-2 of 4-1/4 in., and a Length of 3 in. It is a heavy-gauge (Gauge 3) connector with a 90 deg. L-shaped profile designed for right-angle connections between wood members.
