Product Overview
M12 x 50mm Single Sided Timber Connector is a precision-engineered circular steel plate designed to improve the load-bearing strength of bolted timber joints.
The serrated teeth press firmly into the wood surface to enhance grip, prevent joint rotation, and distribute load evenly across the timber face.
Manufactured from high-strength galvanised steel, it offers durable corrosion resistance and reliable mechanical anchorage in structural timber applications. The single-sided format is suited for use against a steel plate, washer, or similar bearing surface, ensuring firm compression and secure connection under load.
Designed for M12 bolts, the connector provides an effective interface between timber members, maintaining joint stability in shear and tension.
Features & Benefits
- High-strength steel construction: Manufactured from galvanised carbon steel for reliable structural performance and long service life.
- Corrosion resistant: Zinc coating protects against moisture and oxidation in interior and exterior environments.
- Enhanced load transfer: Serrated teeth distribute bearing stress evenly, preventing timber crushing and joint movement.
- Single-sided format: Designed for use against a washer or plate where only one timber face requires mechanical interlock.
- M12 compatibility: Precisely sized centre hole ensures tight fit around M12 bolts for consistent connection strength.
- Overall diameter 50mm: Compact connector suitable for small to medium section timber joints.
Applications
- Timber-to-timber joints: Enhances load transfer in compression and tension joints.
- Timber-to-steel joints: Ideal where one side of the joint bears against a steel plate or bracket.
- Roof trusses and frames: Provides reinforced connections in structural roof or frame assemblies.
- General carpentry: Used wherever controlled load distribution and joint rigidity are required.
Installation Guidance
- Surface preparation: Ensure timber faces are clean, dry, and free from debris.
- Positioning: Align the connector centrally around the pre-drilled M12 bolt hole.
- Pressing: Drive the connector teeth into the timber surface using steady bolt tightening or mechanical press.
- Assembly: Fit the bolt through the joint, ensuring even compression across the connection.
- Final check: Tighten securely to achieve full tooth embedment without over-compression of the timber fibres.
Compliance & Performance
- Material specification: Galvanised carbon steel to BS EN 10346 for structural connectors.
- Load capacity: Tested to relevant European timber joint design standards.
- Corrosion resistance: Meets service class requirements for internal and covered external use.
- Temperature stability: Suitable for use in environments from –20°C to +50°C without loss of performance.
- Important note: Always ensure connectors are installed in accordance with manufacturer recommendations and local building codes.
