      Can APVA6 be used in a vertical orientation or only in a lateral orientation? I only plan to use 1 per post end in a vertical orientation, can this still withstand high winds? If used in a vertical orientation does that reduce the load rate? Thank you

      Answer This Question

      Hello MRSH, My name is Colin with Simpson Strong-Tie. On our homepage strongtie.com enter APVA6 in the Search Strongtie.com field at the top. Open up the load tables for the heavy angle. These values are based on two angles. Use half the listed values if only installing one angle. However, I do not quite understand your application. To provide better service please contact the Simpson Strong-Tie Customer Service team at 800-999-5099. We look forward to hearing from you.

            can these be bent? ie to use to join sloped rafters to a beam?
            ByFeb 2, 2023

            Answer This Question

            Hey NSte, this is Ricardo with Simpson. For our Outdoor Accents angle we do not suggest bending them. The only product that we offer that may work for your application is our LS skewable angles. This will depend on the amount of load required by the connection. If you are not sure, we would suggest consulting with a design professional. If you have any other questions, please contact us at 800-999-5099. Have a great day.

              I want to use these to attach two 4X4 pieces at a angle of 135 degrees. Actually this is a deck support vertical post with a 45 degree diagonal brace at the top 2 feet. Can the 90 degree angle be opened up to 135 degrees?

                What screws and / or bolts would you recommend using with this product?
                ByNov 28, 2020
                1 Answer | 
                Answer This Question

                Hi! APVA6 angle needs to be installed with SDWS22312DBB wood screws and STN22 hex-head washers. The assembly will have the appearance of a bolted connection even though it is done with wood screws. Copy and paste the following link in your web browser for our catalogue page with information on the screw and the washer: https://embed.widencdn.net/pdf/plus/ssttoolbox/p4ywggrjr6/C-C-CAN2020-p343-p344.pdf Hope this helps.

                  Simple design. Not always quite square. And the gd labels on each one are annoyingly tedious to remove. Pricey.

                  Very well coated and sturdy bracket. I bought to replace gazebo kit anchoring bracket. Much more robust than the kit bracket!

                  Avanti black 2x brackets
                  These brackets were perfect for connecting a heavy and large wrought iron panel to the pergola posts! The screws suggested for using with these brackets look great and secured the panels easily.
