Galvanised roofing angle brackets provide a reliable 90-degree fixing point for structural connections in roofing, timber framing and general construction. Available in four sizes from 50 x 50mm up to 150 x 90mm, each bracket is hot-dip galvanised for corrosion resistance in exposed and outdoor conditions.
Specifications
| Material | Steel |
|---|---|
| Treatment | Galvanised |
| Finish | Hot-dip galvanised, corrosion resistant |
| Nominal Sizes | 50 x 50 x 60mm, 60 x 40 x 60mm, 90 x 90 x 60mm, 150 x 90 x 60mm |
| Profile | 90-degree angle bracket |
| Fixing Method | Nails, screws or bolts |
What it's used for
- Connecting rafters, joists and purlins in timber roof structures
- Timber-to-masonry connections in self-build and renovation projects
- Right-angle bracing for stud walls, fence posts and garden structures
- General structural fixing wherever a rigid 90-degree joint is required on site
Fitting and handling
These brackets can be fixed using nails, screws or bolts depending on the substrate and load requirements. For timber connections, use appropriately rated structural screws or ring-shank nails to achieve full load capacity through all pre-punched holes. Store brackets under cover prior to installation to avoid surface contamination, and where cut edges are exposed after trimming on site, apply a zinc-rich cold galvanising spray to maintain corrosion protection in line with UK building practice.
FAQ
Can galvanised roofing angle brackets be used in external and exposed conditions?
Yes. The galvanised finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for outdoor and exposed environments, including roofing applications where the bracket may be subject to moisture. For highly aggressive environments such as coastal locations, check whether a stainless steel alternative is more appropriate.
What size angle bracket should I use for rafter-to-wall plate connections?
For most standard domestic rafter-to-wall plate connections the 90 x 90 x 60mm or 150 x 90 x 60mm bracket is the appropriate choice, offering greater bearing area and fixing capacity. The smaller 50 x 50mm and 60 x 40mm sizes suit lighter-duty or secondary connections. Always check your structural engineer's specification if in doubt.
Are these angle brackets compatible with treated timber?
Galvanised fixings are generally suitable for use with preservative-treated timber including CCA and most water-based treatments. Where timber has been treated with organic solvent or high-concentration copper-based treatments, confirm compatibility with the bracket manufacturer before installation, as highly corrosive treatments can affect galvanised coatings over time.
