The Hurricane Tie series features various configurations of wind and seismic ties for trusses and rafters.

The H10S provides a high capacity connection from truss/rafter to wall. Also suitable for wood-to-wood applications.

The HM9 is designed to retrofit roof truss/rafters for block construction. The HM9 hurricane tie provides high uplift and lateral capacity using Simpson concrete fasteners.

The presloped 5:12 seat of the H16 provides for a tight fit and reduced deflection. The strap length provides for various truss heights up to a maximum of 13 1/2". Minimum heel height for H16 series is 4".

The LTA1 develops high uplift and lateral loads at a minimum heel height. The side tabs act as a locator in the block and the four embedded hooks allow for higher loads with a relatively shallow embedment.

Material: See table.

Finish: Galvanized; see Corrosion Information.
