Concealed wood connector

One of the biggest advantages of bolt-only connections is the fact that these connections are virtually invisible. However, this is also possible with our concealed connectors, namely the SXHC, which is used for connecting timber secondary beams to a timber main beam. The aluminum connector consists of two parts, one of which is bolted to the secondary beam and the other to the main beam. Due to the conically formed sliding surfaces, a permanently tight and load-bearing connection is created when the secondary beam is inserted, which can also be released easily and as often as required at any time. Our concealed connector is secured against unintentional unhooking by means of an inclined screw that is accessible from above. The connector part on the main beam can be recessed into the wood, which results in almost no joint when installed. If it is not recessed, a shadow gap remains. Both 90� and angled and inclined connections can be realized. The load-bearing capacity is determined by the number of screws on the main beam on the one hand and the screw length of the SPAX fully threaded screws in the secondary beam on the other. To double the load-bearing capacity, up to two concealed connectors per connection are possible. However, you must then pay attention to the minimum distances. The SXHC concealed connector is screwed on using SPAX wood screws and SPAX fully threaded screws with countersunk heads.What this means for you: Visually sophisticated and heavy-duty beam connections can be produced in just a few steps- the load-bearing capacity is thus increased flexibly and easily.
