L/LS/GA Reinforcing & Skewable Angles

L, LS & GA Reinforcing and Skewable Angles

L, LS, and GA reinforcing angles are versatile structural connectors designed to strengthen wood framing connections and provide flexibility in skewed or custom-angle applications. These framing angles are commonly used in roof systems, beam-to-post connections, and general structural reinforcement where additional strength and adjustability are required.

At Fasteners Plus, we carry Simpson Strong-Tie L, LS, and GA angles engineered for load-rated performance and code-compliant construction. Whether you're reinforcing a standard 90-degree connection or accommodating a skewed framing condition, these angles deliver reliable structural support.

What Are L, LS & GA Angles Used For?

Reinforcing and skewable angles are ideal for strengthening wood-to-wood connections and adapting to non-standard framing conditions. Their design allows field adjustments for angled installations while maintaining structural integrity.

• Roof Framing: Secure rafters and trusses at skewed or angled connections.
• Beam & Post Reinforcement: Strengthen critical load-bearing joints.
• Deck & Pergola Construction: Provide added lateral stability.
• General Framing Repairs: Reinforce weakened or modified framing members.

Differences Between L, LS & GA Angles

• L Angles: Standard reinforcing angles for common 90-degree framing applications.
• LS Angles: Skewable versions designed to adjust for angled connections.
• GA Angles: Heavy-duty gusset-style reinforcing angles for increased load capacity.

Selecting the right model depends on your load requirements, framing geometry, and installation environment.

Why Choose Reinforcing & Skewable Angles?

• Field Adjustability: LS angles can be bent or adjusted to accommodate skewed connections.
• Load-Rated Strength: Designed and tested for structural performance.
• Pre-Punched Fastener Holes: Ensures proper nail or screw placement.
• Corrosion-Resistant Options: Available in galvanized finishes suitable for interior and exterior use.
• Code-Compliant Solutions: Manufactured to meet modern building standards.

Built for Structural Flexibility

Contractors rely on L, LS, and GA reinforcing angles for projects where framing conditions are not perfectly square or require additional structural support. From roof systems to custom deck builds, these connectors provide strength without compromising installation efficiency.
