01 Description

About the YC4

The YC4 plate is useful for connecting rafters to struts, while giving a more decorative touch to the truss.

Y plates connect to roof members so they depend on roof pitch.

3/16" steel is a good choice for purely decorative plates. 1/4" is better for applications that need structural support.
