Description

The SPAX beam-to-post solution is a bracket-less method of fastening a beam to a post to providing a very strong, but invisible, connection. It is ideal for pergolas and carports and is extremely cost-effective.

This solution is easy to install by first using a SPAX washer head screw to clamp the beam and post tightly together and then installing SPAX cylinder head full thread screws to provide strength to the connection.

Key Features
  • Invisible connection — no brackets required and the cylinder head can be buried below the timber surface
  • High load capacity to resist wind uplift
  • DELTA-SEAL coating for superior corrosion protection and resistance to timber treatments
  • Unique cut point and serrated thread for reduced chance of splitting the timber and reduced screwing-in torque
  • Patented T-STAR plus recess for better torque transfer and reduced chance of stripping the head
Categories
Fasteners and Connectors
Scope of Use

The principal application is for fastening 90mm wide beams, with a height of 90mm to 240mm onto a 90mm x 90mm post on structures such as pergolas and carports.
