About This Product

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.

Highlights

  • Embossments in bend line strengthen connection
  • The top flange features an arrow line indicator to aid correct installation
  • Made from 18-gauge steel
  • ZMAX galvanization offers extra corrosion resistance for exterior and treated-wood applications
  • Install with (10) 0.131-in x 2-1/2-in nails or (10) #9 x 1-1/2-in Strong-Drive SD screws
  • Install with 8d common nails or 9 x 1-1/2 in. strong-drive SD screws

Q:What is the length of the piece? We are building a 4 ft x 8 ft on ground garden 12 inches high. One kit available seems weak, and someone suggested hurricane joints. Will these ties work?

Answer This Question

A:  Hi Gardener, this is Colin from Simpson Strong-Tie. The overall height of the H2.5AZ is 6". This tie provides a positive connection between truss/rafter and the wall of a structure, or a deck joist over top of a beam to resist wind and seismic forces. If you need more information or have additional questions, please contact the Simpson Strong-Tie Customer Service team at 800-999-5099. Thank you.

      A:  Hey Angel, Ricardo here with Simpson. These look the same in appearance, but are different in length, hole pattern, and published load values. Please contact our Technical Support team at (800)999-5099 to discuss further if needs be.

        Q:Can these nails be used? Model#: N8D5HDG-R
        by|Aug 11, 2023

        Answer This Question

        A:  Hello Todd, this is Ricardo with SImpson. The suggested fastener for the H2.5A is a 0.131 x 2.5" nail. If you go with the shorter N8D5HDG-R, which is a 0.131 x 1.5" nail, it will change the uplift load capacity of the hurricane tie. If you would like to discuss this further, please contact us at (800)999-5099

            Simpson deserves 5 stars just for their technical manuals alone! I do not buy any other brand. I specified Simpson back when I had a real job and I still use them for home maintenance projects. I don't do toe nails or any of that wood-splitting stuff. Use screws and pre-drill the holes on that old construction.

            I was using this on a shed and ties should be used to hold roof trusses and tie the roof back to the ground on almost any structure. These work fine, decent gauge, look strong
