Truss Clips That Anchor Roof Trusses to the Wall Plate
Discover our full collection of Truss Clips at Fixings2Go. Part of our wider Structural Fixings collection the truss clip is how a modern roof holds onto the building. It wraps the bottom chord of the truss and nails to the wall plate resisting wind uplift without the skew nailing that splits truss timbers.
TIMCO galvanised truss clips come in 38mm and 47mm widths to match standard truss chord thicknesses. Fix one clip per truss per wall plate as a minimum with exposed sites often specifying a clip both sides. Nail through every hole with galvanised square twist nails to develop the rated uplift resistance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why use truss clips instead of skew nailing?
Skew nails split the slender chords of a trussed rafter and offer little uplift resistance. A truss clip fixes through pre punched holes damaging nothing and holding the roof down in wind.
Which width truss clip do I need?
Match the clip to the truss thickness which is 38mm for most standard trusses and 47mm for heavier sections. The clip should hug the timber without forcing.
