16 Gauge Truss Plates

E16 structural connector plates are produced from 16 gauge galvanized sheet steel and have 6 nails per square inch. The sheet steel conforms to ASTM A 653, Grade 40 minimum and is galvanized in accordance with ASTM A 924 with a coating designation G60.

The plates are formed in a piercing die which punches two nails in opposite directions simultaneously from the same hole. The nails are approximately 5/16 inches (7.9mm) long and 1/8 (3.2mm) wide and have opposing scarf points. Each nail has a progressive rotation starting with 0 degrees at the base and approximately 5 degrees at the tip. In addition, each set of nails is spaced 1 inch (25.4mm) on center across the length of the plate and is offset approximately 1/8 inch (3.2mm) from each other.

E16 nails are spaced approximately 1/4 inch (6.4mm) apart across the width of the plate and every other pair of nails are preceded and followed by one set of nails in a counter rotation.
