#LS50Z - 2-1/4" x 2-1/4" x 4-7/8" Adjustable Joist Angle Zmax | The LS connector is a cost-effective method for connecting roof rafters to hip rafters. The durable design and fastening options of these load-rated skewable angles make them an ideal option compared to field-fabricated clip angles. The LS has well-defined fastener locations, and testing ensures that the tabulated load values account for connection eccentricities.
