DIYUK Flat Joining Plate 210 x 90 x 2.5mm, Galvanised Steel Mending Bracket for Timber, Pack of 2

Built to withstand outdoor conditions: manufactured from Z275 galvanised steel with a declared characteristic yield strength of 220 N/mm² and a minimum 20% elongation at failure, so the plate flexes slightly under overload instead of snapping suddenly, for a safer structural connection. Fits almost any timber joint: this 210 x 90 x 2.5mm (8.27 x 3.54 inch) flat plate has pre-punched fixing holes on both sides, ready for nails or screws with no on-site drilling, so it works across butt joints, lap joints and splices instead of being limited to one fixed 90-degree corner like an angle bracket. Suits a wide range of timber jobs: splice two lengths of timber end to end, brace fence panels and posts against wind and lateral load, reinforce a cracked or split joist or rafter, or add extra strength to roof truss, stud wall and decking substructure connections. Supplied as a pack of 2 flat plates, giving you enough to complete multiple joints, splices or repairs across a fencing, decking or framing project without reordering. Manufactured to the harmonised European standard EN 14545:2008 under System 2+ assessment by notified body Building Research Institute (ITB), Poland (notified body 1488), with the Z275 coating rated for service classes 1 and 2 under EN 1995-1-1 (Eurocode 5).
