Joist Hanger with Adjustable Height Strap (JHA)
Material
- Pre-galvanised mild steel.
Features
- A galvanised joist hanger that provides great support with ease of installation.
- Published performance values are based upon 3.75 x 30mm square twist nails being used throughout.
- Wider strap provides more surface area on the supporting timber and allows increased nail spacing, enhancing the performance of the critical hanger-to-support part of the connection.
- Minimum and maximum nailing schedules are stamped into the strap providing correct installation information for site operatives.
- Speed-prong holds the hanger in position to allow easier attachment. The installer no longer has to try to hold hanger, joist and nail with one hand and swing a hammer with the other!
- JHA270 range features a location tab which allows easier alignment of the hanger.
- The model number and size is stamped into the seat of the hanger for easy identification, even after installation.

Heavy Engineered Restraint Strap
A direct replacement for traditional restraint straps, the innovative design of these lightweight straps allows ease of handling and installation whilst maintaining the structural strength and robustness of much heavier weight types.
The HES (heavy engineered strap) & LES (light engineered strap) replace
traditional heavy and light restraint straps in roof and floor construction.
Reducing the thickness to 1.5mm allows the HES strap to span the bottom
chords of trusses and over floor joists without the need for notching.HES straps are less than 40% of the weight, quicker to fit, and overcome many fixing problems associated with traditional heavy straps.
The LES is designed for vertical applications e.g. holding down wall plates
- Formed edge design gives additional strength on bend
- Quicker to install – can fit over top of floor joists and truss bottom chords
- Easier to course with blockwork
- No need to notch joists
- Complies with BS EN 845-1
600, 800, 1200 & 1500mm

Light Restraint Straps
- The L straps are designed to The Building Regulations for horizontal and vertical restraint.
- Light restraint straps are designed for vertical loads such as wall plates on top of masonry walls.
- All common sizes in stock from 500 to 2000mm long, 100mm increments. Longer lengths avaialble to order; contact technical support.
