Simpson Strong Tie Pscl 1/2 Plywood Clip 250 Pack

Product Description

The SIMPSON STRONG TIE PSCL 1/2 is a 20-gauge galvanized steel plywood clip designed to connect sheathing panels edge to edge without nails. The clip maintains proper panel spacing and promotes a flat, even surface across the sheathing plane, which supports structural integrity at unsupported panel edges. It is sized for 1/2 inch plywood or OSB sheathing and installs quickly between framing members during roof or wall sheathing applications. Framers, carpenters, and general contractors install this clip as part of standard sheathing assemblies on both residential and light commercial construction projects. This pack contains 250 clips sold as individual units.

The PSCL 1/2 is used in roof and floor sheathing assemblies where panel edges fall between framing members and require edge support. The clip holds adjacent panel edges in alignment, reducing differential movement and helping maintain a consistent nailing surface. It is appropriate for residential new construction, remodeling, and light commercial framing where 1/2 inch structural panels are specified by the design or local building code.

Key Features

• 20-gauge galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in exposed framing conditions
• Nail-free installation speeds up sheathing work and reduces fastener count at panel edges
• Sized specifically for 1/2 inch plywood or OSB panel thickness
• Maintains consistent panel edge spacing and alignment across the sheathing field
• Sold in a 250-count pack suitable for production framing quantities

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style edge support clip for use with 1/2 inch structural wood sheathing panels, including plywood and oriented strand board, in standard residential and light commercial framing assemblies.

Installation Notes

Plywood clips of this type are typically installed by framers or carpenters during sheathing operations before roofing or wall finish materials are applied. No special tools are required for installation; the clip is pressed onto the panel edge by hand between framing bays. Follow applicable building code requirements, including those referenced in the IRC or IBC, for sheathing edge support spacing and panel fastening schedules. Do not substitute a clip sized for a different panel thickness, as improper fit will reduce edge support performance.
