Product Description
Simpson HGA10KTHDG HGA Hot-Dip Galvanized Hurricane Gusset Angle with SDS Screws is a Simpson Strong-Tie engineered structural connector designed to secure the truss to the top plate in gable end truss connections and other framing applications. The engineered gusset in the angle increases strength for lateral and uplift loads, making it an essential component for construction in high-wind and seismic zones. This hurricane gusset angle installs easily with Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the HGA10KTHDG designed to do?
- The HGA10KTHDG is designed to secure the truss to the top plate in gable end truss connections and other framing applications. The engineered gusset in the angle increases strength for lateral and uplift loads, making it particularly effective in high-wind and seismic construction environments.
- Why choose the hot-dip galvanized (HDG) version of the HGA?
- Hot-dip galvanization (HDG) offers extra corrosion resistance compared to standard coatings, making the HGA10KTHDG well suited for exterior applications and framing that involves treated wood, where exposure to moisture and chemicals can accelerate corrosion in lesser-coated connectors.
- What fasteners are used to install the HGA10KTHDG?
- The HGA10KTHDG installs with Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws, which are included in the kit. No additional fasteners need to be purchased separately for installation.
- What gauge steel is used in the HGA10KTHDG connector?
- The HGA10KTHDG hurricane gusset angle is made from 14-gauge steel, providing a sturdy and reliable connection capable of handling the lateral and uplift loads common in high-wind and seismic framing applications.
