DindasChord 15 is JD3 Rated and cost-effective

DindasChord 15 is now available in Australia with an impressive JD3 rating. According to Australian Standard AS1720.1 and the Building Code of Australia, this rating measures a wood’s ability to grip tightly onto a nail, screw, or bolt – the lower the JD number, the stronger the wood.
This strength and security make DindasChord 15 ideal for high-load-bearing components in Australian frame and truss manufacturing, delivering a cost-effective solution with smaller and cheaper connections to our customers.

DindasChord 15 - The Perfect Choice for Roof Trusses

DindasChord 15 has the strongest grip on nail plate teeth among all LVL ranges at Dindas Australia. This translates to a need for fewer nail plate teeth to achieve the same level of connection strength, allowing for the use of smaller and more affordable nail plates.
Opting for larger nail plates requires a deeper and more expensive bottom chord, while choosing smaller nail plates means a more cost-effective and manageable bottom chord that is easier to pre-camber and position during manufacturing. With DindasChord 15, the smaller nail plates provide a more cost-efficient solution for the bottom chord, achieving the same level of connection strength with smaller and cheaper connection brackets.
Keep in mind that DindasChord 15 is JD3 compliant, delivering superior grip capabilities for nails, screws, and bolts. Choose DindasChord 15 for greater savings and quality results.
