Questions & Answers
What is the distance from the inside corner to the first screw/ nail hole?
Asked by Kiki November 14, 2020Can this be bent to 135 degrees - or do they sell one already at that angle?
Asked by Jeffrey March 30, 2020This can be bent to any desired angle without deforming if you are experienced in metal working. I bent mine to 123 degrees. To my knowledge is not sold in angles other than 90 degrees.
Can they be bent to different angles?
Asked by Hank August 15, 2019The A33 is only designed/tested for 90 degree connections. We cannot support field modification of this angle. Thank you!

What size wood screw will fit the holes
Asked by Wayne November 9, 2016The holes are 0.148" and were intended for 10-penny common nails. They will accommodate only #6 screws, so would likely need to be drilled larger for your application. Specs for Simpson A-series angles may be found here: http://embed.widencdn.net/pdf/plus/ssttoolbox/e39lmuvjy2/C-C-2019-p285.pdf
What is the measured distance between the holes side-to-side
Asked by Greg October 24, 2015The plate is not wide enough to accept a 1" ID U bolt.
Could I use these as wall shelf anchors?
Asked by tcjaab August 10, 2015The A33 angles are not intended for a shelf application. This connector is rated for lateral capacities, where a shelf would have a download force. Please see the SBV shelf bracket as a possible option (the SBV has a 145 lb. download capacity). Thank you!
can I anchor these to concrete to hold a 4x4 post for privacy fence?
Asked by mike September 24, 2012For mounting a 4x4 I would choose something heavier. Check out the range of Simpson post hardware at: https://www.strongtie.com/search/?q=post
