Simpson Strong-Tie ER Reinforced Angle Bracket for Structural Timber Connections

The Simpson Strong-Tie ER reinforced angle bracket is designed for structural timber connections in timber frame buildings, wood-frame houses and general construction applications. The reinforced design provides reliable load transfer and stability in load-bearing connections.

Manufactured from galvanized steel S250GD + Z275 according to NF EN 10346, the bracket offers corrosion protection and durability for indoor and protected outdoor applications. The reinforced geometry improves the performance of the connector in timber-to-timber, timber-to-concrete and timber-to-steel connections.

ER angle brackets are suitable for connecting solid timber, glued laminated timber, composite lumber, roof trusses and structural profiles. They are commonly used where secure and durable structural fastening is required.
