FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the TIMco Tee Plate?

The TIMco Tee Plate is designed to provide structural reinforcement and repair for joints in construction and carpentry applications.

Can these tee plates be used outdoors?

No, these tee plates have a Corrosion Rating 1 and are optimized for clean, dry, low-humidity environments. They are not suitable for outdoor or high-moisture applications.

What size fasteners should I use?

The tee plates have a 4mm fixing hole diameter, making them compatible with standard screws and bolts up to this size.

Does the pack include screws?

No, the pack contains two tee plates. Fasteners such as screws or bolts are not included and must be purchased separately.

How do the countersunk holes benefit installation?

Countersunk holes allow the heads of the fasteners to sit flush with the surface of the tee plate, resulting in a neat, professional appearance and preventing them from snagging on other objects.

What are the dimensions of the TIMco Tee Plate?

The dimensions of each tee plate are 76mm x 76mm x 16mm.

How many tee plates are in a pack?

Each pack contains 2 TIMco Tee Plates.

Troubleshooting

Plate not sitting flush

Ensure the wood surface is flat and that the screws are driven in completely, but avoid over-tightening which can strip the wood.

Corrosion observed on the plate

The product is rated for dry, internal use. If corrosion is present, it may be due to exposure to moisture. Relocate the item to a drier environment or replace it if significant degradation has occurred.

Fasteners not holding securely

Ensure you are using fasteners of an appropriate length for the materials being joined and that they are suitable for the 4mm hole diameter. For soft woods, pilot holes may be beneficial.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Provides effective structural reinforcement for joints.
Countersunk holes offer a neat, professional finish.
Durable zinc-plated steel construction for internal use.
Easy to install with standard fasteners.
Cost-effective solution for multiple repair tasks.

Cons

Limited corrosion resistance (Rating 1) restricts use to dry, indoor environments.
Not suitable for exterior applications or high-moisture areas.
Requires appropriate fasteners (not included) for installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Position the TIMco Tee Plate precisely where reinforcement is needed on the joint.
Mark the screw hole locations on the wood through the tee plate's countersunk holes.
Using appropriate wood screws (not included) with a diameter suitable for the 4mm holes, fasten the plate securely to both surfaces of the joint.

Compatibility:

Designed for use with wood and other common construction materials.
Compatible with standard screws and bolts that fit through the 4mm diameter fixing holes.

Care:

The zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance, but these plates are intended for clean, dry, low-humidity environments.
Wipe clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth if dust accumulates. Avoid abrasive cleaners or prolonged exposure to moisture.
