How Timberlinx Works
Timberlinx is a connection tube inserted equally in both members of the joint and linked by two expanding cross pins. Timberlinx can join wood-to-wood, wood-to-concrete, and wood-to-steel.
- Fastest, most cost-effective timber joining system in the industry
- Replace any mortise and tenon joint, yet stronger and looks similar
- Achieve additional joints never before possible
- Install as joint is assembled or after—opens up lots of possibilities
- Enables four-way and three-way connections
- Tighten with Allen key and completely conceal with wood plug
- Free from mechanical constraints
Timberlinx strengthened connections outside our existing details.
