It resists uplift and lateral forces generated by high-wind events, distributing structural stress across the connection point to maintain roof-to-wall integrity. Each tie is installed using five 8d x 1-1\/2 inch nails per connection. Licensed contractors and framers working in wind-prone regions rely on this connector to meet code-required uplift resistance in both residential and light commercial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe H2.5A is suited for residential and light commercial wood-frame buildings where roof-to-wall uplift connections are required by local building codes. It is commonly installed during framing at each rafter-to-top-plate junction. This tie is a practical solution for new construction and re-roofing projects in hurricane-prone or high-wind zones where engineered connectors are specified by plan or code.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConnects rafter to top plate for uplift and lateral load resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInstalls with five 8d x 1-1\/2 inch nails per connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuited for both residential and light commercial wood-frame construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSupports compliance with wind-load and uplift requirements in applicable building codes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a package quantity of 100 units per carton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style structural connector for wood-frame rafter-to-top-plate applications in standard dimensional lumber framing systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by licensed framers or general contractors during the rough framing phase. Fasten with the specified 8d x 1-1\/2 inch nails only — substituting nail size or type may affect the rated load capacity and code compliance. Follow applicable local building codes and manufacturer load tables when determining connector spacing and placement. Always consult structural drawings or an engineer of record when connectors are specified on permitted plans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFasteners Required\u003c\/strong\u003e: Five 8d x 1-1\/2 inch nails per connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each (EA)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100 per carton\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SIMPSON STRONG TIE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: H2.5A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SIMPSON STRONG-TIE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51524388094258,"sku":"H2.5A","price":63.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9e956dce69388d69a26b0fb529383c3e.jpg?v=1785447653","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/simpson-strong-tie-h2-5a-hurricane-tie-rafter-connector","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
