Description

Simpson Strong-tie H2.5A-25PK Hurricane Tie 25ct

The H2.5A single-sided hurricane tie is designed to resist moderate loads at the rafter/truss-to-top-plate connection. As part of a continuous load path, the H2.5A resists both lateral and uplift loads. The symmetrical design eliminates the need for separate right and left parts.

Key Features

• Embossments in bend line strengthen connection
• The top plate flange features an arrow line indicator to aid correct installation
• The H2.5ASS model is in stainless steel for improved corrosion resistance

Material

• 18 ga.

Finish

• Galvanized (G90), stainless steel or ZMAX coating; see Corrosion Information

Installation

• Use all specified fasteners.
• Hurricane ties do not replace solid blocking.
• When installing ties on plated trusses (on the side opposite the truss plate) do not fasten through the truss plate from behind. This can force the truss plate off of the truss and compromise truss performance.
