TC Truss Clips

TC Truss Clips are a cost-effective and reliable solution for securing trusses and rafters to wall plates, ensuring wind uplift restraint and eliminating the risk of damage from skew nailing. With a safe working load of 2.38kN uplift, these clips are designed to provide positive resistance against wind forces and improve structural stability. Recommended in BS 5268: Part 3, Truss Clips are also versatile enough to be used as multi-purpose connectors wherever two timber members intersect, making them ideal for a range of light-duty applications.
