Simpson Strong Tie TA9Z-R 9 Inch Staircase Angle Z-max

Product Description

The SIMPSON STRONG TIE TA9Z-R is a 9-inch staircase angle connector with a Z-Max corrosion-resistant coating, designed for structural angle joinery in staircase framing applications. This connector is used to fasten stringers, treads, and framing members at precise angles, maintaining load transfer and structural integrity at stair connections. Licensed contractors and experienced builders install this hardware as part of code-compliant stair assemblies. The Z-Max finish provides enhanced corrosion resistance over standard galvanized coatings, making it suitable for treated lumber and protected exterior environments. Sold in a package of 20 units.

The TA9Z-R is suited for residential and light commercial staircase construction and renovation work. It is used where a structural angle connector is required at stair framing intersections, including stringer-to-plate and stringer-to-header connections. The package quantity of 20 makes it practical for multi-stair projects or repeat installations on larger jobs. Professional framers and finish carpenters are the primary installers for this type of connector.
