Simpson Strong Tie MP36 Mending Plate 3x6 Inches G90

Product Description

The SIMPSON STRONG TIE MP36 is a flat mending plate used to reinforce and splice wood-to-wood connections across a range of structural and finish carpentry applications. Measuring 3 inches by 6 inches and fabricated from G90 galvanized steel, it delivers reliable corrosion resistance for both interior and exterior installations. The plate is sold in a package of 100 units, making it practical for contractors and framers who need consistent, job-site-ready hardware in volume. Installers across framing, decking, and general wood construction rely on this plate to restore or reinforce joint integrity quickly and without complex hardware.

This mending plate is suited for residential and light commercial wood framing, deck construction, furniture assembly, and general repair work where a flat metal reinforcement is needed across a butt joint or splice. It is appropriate for new construction and retrofit applications. The G90 galvanized coating makes it a suitable choice in environments with moderate moisture exposure, including covered exterior structures and treated-lumber assemblies.

Installation Notes

Mending plates are typically installed by carpenters, framers, or general contractors using standard fasteners appropriate to the lumber species and load condition. Ensure the mating wood surfaces are flush and properly aligned before fastening. Follow applicable building code requirements, including IBC or IRC provisions, for connector fastener schedules in structural applications. Do not substitute this plate in applications requiring a rated structural connector without verifying load capacity with the manufacturer's published tables.
