Simpson Strong-Tie H8Z - 18-Gauge ZMAX Galvanized Hurricane Tie
Simpson Strong-Tie hurricane ties are designed to resist high winds and seismic forces by positively connecting trusses/rafters to the top of wall of the structure.

Some hurricane tie models are available with additional corrosion resistance for exterior and treated-wood applications.
