ABSTRACT:
A jointing connector made from a sheet metal blank for connecting two to four wood members such as 2.times.4's. The connector includes a palm portion, and a finger portion with six distinct finger members. Each finger may be bent in the field by workmen to accommodate the particular jointing of the wood members. Preferably, the connector is bent in a U-shape at the factory. Three types of nail openings are provided including circular, slotted and directional slotted tab openings. The different types of openings with the configuration of the connector enable workmen to use the same connector in nearly a universal application to all types of jointing configurations. Further, the use of the special nail openings and the connector permit many of the nails to be used in double shear applications so that the connection value is doubled.
