What type of screws should I use?

The connector has 12 pre-drilled holes with a 10 mm diameter. You should use wood screws that are compatible with this size and suitable for outdoor construction.

Can this connector be used for ground posts?

This connector is designed for joining beams together. For ground posts, ensure it is used in conjunction with appropriate ground anchoring methods.

What is the material of the connector?

The connector is made of hot-dip galvanized steel, which provides excellent resistance to rust and corrosion.

What are the dimensions of the connector?

The dimensions of this T-shape post connector are 305 x 200 x 91 mm.

How many beams can this connector hold?

This specific T-shape connector is designed to join three wooden beams together.

Is this product suitable for indoor use?

While the connector is durable and weather-resistant for outdoor use, it can also be used indoors for structural applications where a T-junction of three beams is required.

This specific product listing is for a pack of 8 connectors.

Troubleshooting

Connector feels loose after installation.

Ensure all 12 screws are fully tightened and are of the correct diameter for the pre-drilled holes. Verify that the wooden posts are seated correctly within the connector.

Difficulty inserting wooden posts.

Check that the wooden posts are of the correct dimensions to fit snugly into the connector slots. Ensure no debris is present in the slots.

Signs of rust or corrosion appearing.

While hot-dip galvanization is robust, prolonged exposure in harsh environments can eventually lead to minor surface rust. Clean the affected area and consider applying a metal-specific protective coating if widespread.
