Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie HL57G Heavy L-Shaped Angle with Gusset is a robust, versatile connector engineered to reinforce right-angle wood-to-wood connections in demanding structural applications. Its L-shaped profile combined with an integrated gusset delivers exceptional corner stability, helping resist uplift and lateral forces at critical junctions. Fabricated in the United States from zinc galvanized G90 steel at 7 gauge, this heavy utility connector is built to perform where structural integrity matters most. The multipurpose design promotes standardization and construction economy across a wide range of framing and building applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What gauge steel is the HL57G constructed from?
- The HL57G is constructed from 7-gauge steel, providing heavy-duty structural performance in demanding right-angle connection applications.
- What coating does the HL57G feature?
- The HL57G features a Zinc Galvanized G90 coating, which provides a protective layer against corrosion for long-term durability.
- What fasteners are required to install the HL57G?
- Installation requires (12) 1/2 in. diameter bolts. Lag screws of equal diameter, at a minimum length of 5 in., may be substituted for bolts in the beam with no reduction in load.
- Can the HL57G be used to resist lateral loads in both directions?
- Yes. When the HL57G connectors are installed in pairs, the assembly achieves lateral load resistance in both directions, making it suitable for applications with multidirectional force demands.
