Product Description
The Simpson H2A 18-Gauge Galvanized Hurricane Tie by Simpson Strong-Tie is a single-sided hurricane tie engineered to make a direct connection between the rafter or truss, the top plates, and the wall studs. A value-added solution for high-wind applications, it is designed to resist uplift and lateral loads.
