Simpson Strong-Tie's fence bracket is designed for connecting fence posts to rails. The simple design of this fence rail bracket provides strong connections without the need for toe nails or screws. Preinstallation of brackets allows rails to slide into place easily, so planning and building fences, deck/porch railings and louvers is quick and simple. Made from heavy-duty 20-gauge steel, it features ZMAX(R) triple-zinc galvanized finish for extra corrosion resistance, a design with outdoor conditions and treated-wood applications in mind. Holes are sized for 0.131-in x 1.5-in nails, 0.131-in x 2.5-in nails or #9 x 1.5-in Strong-Drive(R) SD Connector screws into the supporting member.
