Product Description
The MEGANT connector is a pre-engineered post to beam connector, a system manufactured from aluminum with connector plates and threaded rod to secure the connection.
Code-approved reliability, they are installed with the ASSY VG CSK screws which have been awarded an ICC-ESR approval in the United States and the Canadian Construction Materials Centre Reports (CCMC) approval in Canada.
Simple installation is possible with structural screws perpendicular to the plate. MEGANT connectors can be installed fully concealed or visible. Suitable for timber framing, log home building, mass, and heavy timber construction.
