Restraint Strap – Galvanised Steel – Construction

Product Overview

This heavy-duty restraint strap is manufactured from galvanised steel and is designed for structural anchorage in timber and masonry construction. With a flat profile and a 1000mm length, it offers secure load restraint where higher strength and rigidity are required. It's perfect for use in vertical or horizontal applications, such as tying wall plates, trusses, or joists to supporting masonry.

The galvanised finish ensures corrosion resistance, providing durable long-term performance in both internal and sheltered external environments. The extended 1000mm length is ideal for deeper wall or roof restraint assemblies and larger-span structural tie connections.

Features & Benefits

• Galvanised Steel: Heavy-gauge construction for high strength and corrosion resistance.
• Flat Profile: Enables straightforward installation against surfaces without the need for offset or twist.
• Fixing Holes: Pre-punched at uniform intervals for consistent load transfer and reliable anchorage.
• Corrosion Protection: Zinc coating resists rust and surface degradation.
• Structural Reliability: Suitable for restraining heavy-duty roof members, wall plates, and joists.
• Extended Reach: 1000mm length for large roof, wall, or floor restraint applications.

Applications

• Roof Restraint: Provides secure anchorage for wall plates, rafters, or trussed rafters.
• Floor Restraint: Connects timber joists to masonry or concrete for lateral stability.
• Wall Restraint: Ties internal and external walls or partitions to the main structural frame.
• General Heavy-Duty Fixing: Ideal for large-span restraint requiring increased strap length for secure anchorage.

Installation Guidance

• Fixing Method: Secure with appropriate heavy-duty nails, screws, or bolts through pre-punched holes.
• Orientation: Install flat against the substrate for optimal bearing and load transfer.
• Support Alignment: Ensure full surface contact between strap and substrate for maximum restraint performance.
• Fixing Spacing: Typical vertical spacing of 2m apart or as specified by structural design.
• Fastener Selection: Use stainless or galvanised fixings compatible with the strap coating.
