help Simpson Strong-Tie L90Z ZMAX Galvanized Corner Bracket FAQ
What is the Simpson Strong-Tie L90Z used for?
The L90Z is a 90-degree angle bracket used to reinforce wood connections in framing and general construction. It is commonly used where two members meet at a corner or right angle.
What does ZMAX mean on the L90Z bracket?
ZMAX is Simpson Strong-Tie's heavier galvanized coating for improved corrosion resistance compared with standard G90 galvanizing. It is useful for projects exposed to more moisture, though fastener choice still has to match the connector.
Can the L90Z be used outdoors?
It can be used in some exterior or damp applications when the coating and fasteners are appropriate for the environment. Simpson Strong-Tie publishes connector corrosion guidance, and that matters for treated lumber and coastal conditions.
What fasteners should be used with the Simpson L90Z?
Use the fasteners specified by Simpson Strong-Tie for the connector and load case, not random drywall screws. Structural screws or nails must match the bracket holes, coating, and the loads the connection is expected to carry.
