VGU PLATE T, the two-dimensional perforated plate for tensile loads.
The moment joint is broken down into a tension action absorbed by the VGU PLATE T plate and a compression action absorbed by the wood or, alternatively, by the DISC FLAT concealed connector. Thanks to the use of VGS PLATE T screws arranged at 45°, the high tensile forces can be transferred.
The two-dimensional carbon steel perforated plate with galvanic zinc coating is equipped with slots for housing the VGU washers that allow the VGS screws to be inserted at 45°. Ideal for use with solid and laminated timber, CLT and LVL, it is suitable for use in service classes 1 and 2.
