Straps Ties
H Seismic Hurricane Ties
NEW! The H2.5Ts truncated design was developed to
accommodate trusses with 2x4 bottom chords. The easy to install,
five nail pattern is stronger and gets better uplift loads than our
popular H2.5 hurricane tie.
The H14 is the high uplift hurricane tie. It can be installed with
rafter nailing flanges facing inwards or outwards.
The H2.5A is designed for easy installation, with higher uplift
loads to meet new code requirements. H5A has installed cost benefit,
it only requires 6 nails, to meet lower uplift requirements.
