It more closely matches the characteristics of wood for modulus of elasticity, expansion and contraction, and condensation than does typical steel reinforcing rod. USES For making load bearing connections, pinning
and reinforcing wood and concrete elements. Typical applications
include attachment and reinforcement of rafters, trusses, purlins, framing
members, beams, sills, columns, logs, timbers, etc. It can be used

another. Call for details and information.
