The Simpson Strong-Tie LS70Z is a skewable L-angle framing connector designed to reinforce connections between members that intersect at angles. Built from high-quality galvanized steel with a ZMAX coating, this 6-3/8 inch angle provides reinforcement for both new construction and renovation projects. It solves the challenge of connecting framing members at non-90-degree angles without requiring custom field-fabricated clip angles.
This connector is a versatile tool for builders and DIY enthusiasts working on framing projects. The galvanized steel construction resists corrosion, making it suitable for outdoor applications and moisture-prone environments. The ZMAX coating delivers extra durability, ensuring your connections withstand the elements and stand the test of time.
