ZS

Slotted Z-Clip

The ZS clip allows I-joists off-cuts or solid sawn timber to be used as noggings between joists to support floor decks or partitions.

  • Fully interlocking top flange works on all I-joist header widths to prevent overlapping of opposing clips.
  • Slotted bottom flanges allows I-joist off-cuts to be used.
  • Triangular nail hole for use with 50mm wide headers, also it ensures that nails can be staggered when ZS clips are interlocked.
  • Embossed bottom flange provides greatly enhanced resistance to bending.
  • Obround nail holes in the bottom flange ensure easier angled nailing.
