H Clips Reinforce Roof Support: H Clips are an easy and effective way to add stability to your plywood or OSB roof. Because the lead-in 16, living hinge 18, and tapered arms 12 all work to grip the building material 11, thereby keeping the H clip 10 secured in position on the material 11, a second sheet of building material 11 can be easily inserted into one or more of the H clips 10 and easily slid sideways into its final position.

In use, a plurality of H clips 10 may be installed as needed during construction, or the H clips 10 may be pre-loaded onto a first piece of building material 11, as shown in FIG.

The H clip 10 can be installed on a variety of building materials 11, such as plywood, roofing sheath, wafer board or other materials, quickly, easily and securely. If it is a 4-12 slope or greater pass on the 5/8 and go 1/2" with H clips to save some money and 1/2 a log from the veneer mill.
