Galvanised Flat Timber Connector Plates Bag of 5

Timber connector plates are one of those items that earn their keep on any job involving timber jointing, repair, or reinforcement. These galvanised flat connector plates provide a clean, secure way to join timber members face-to-face or end-to-end, and they are used across a wide range of building, joinery, and maintenance work. At 62mm wide across all sizes, they sit comfortably over standard timber sections and provide a solid bearing surface for fixings on both sides of the joint.

Each plate is hot-dip galvanised, which gives it genuine weather resistance and makes it suitable for use in exposed or damp conditions. Timber framing, garden structures, outbuildings, fencing repairs, and roofing timbers all see moisture at some point. A plated or painted mild steel bracket can start to go in a few years in those conditions. Galvanised steel holds up considerably better, which means you are not revisiting the same joint in three years’ time wondering why it has started to move.

Where These Timber Connector Plates Get Used

The four available lengths cover a good spread of common applications. The 100mm plate suits lighter joinery repairs and smaller section timbers. The 180mm plate is a popular general-purpose choice for stud work, batten joins, and frame repairs. The 240mm and 300mm plates are better suited to structural jointing where you need more fastener positions and a longer bearing length across the joint. All four share the same 62mm width, so switching between lengths on the same job is straightforward.

Pre-punched fixing holes run at regular intervals along the full length of each plate, making it easy to get your screws or bolts positioned correctly without any marking out. For most applications, standard structural wood screws work well. Where load-bearing joints are involved, square-drive or Torx-drive screws with an appropriate shear rating are worth considering.

Buying in Bags of 5

These timber connector plates come in bags of five, which suits smaller jobs, repair callouts, and keeping a few spares in the van without committing to a full box. If you are working through a larger framing job or fitting out a timber frame structure, it is worth buying several bags to avoid stopping mid-job. The galvanised finish also means they store well, so any unused plates will still be in good condition when you need them next time.

The 62mm width is consistent across all four sizes, which makes stocking a mixed selection practical. Many tradespeople carry the 180mm and 240mm as standard and order the longer plates as needed. For general repairs and maintenance work, the 100mm plate covers a lot of ground on its own.

Simple products done well. These flat timber connector plates are not complicated, but they do the job reliably and the galvanised finish means they last. Available in 62 x 100mm, 62 x 180mm, 62 x 240mm, and 62 x 300mm.
