Copy of M20 Plate 63 x 152mm

The MiTek connector plate has been leading the world's roof and floor joist innovation for many years. Plates vary from the popular M20 (1mm) galvanised plate through to heavier gauges for a better connection. Our cutting edge design software analyses the forces passing through each joint in the roof truss or floor joist, considering all of the different load cases and calculating the connector plate requirements for each joint. Whilst a standard truss will typically use a selection of different M20 connector plates, large span trusses and room-in-the-roof attic trusses which support greater loads will often require some joints to use the thicker gauge B90 or M14 connector plates to give the truss greater strength.
