Hurricane ties provide lateral stress to the structure and are often used to reinforce timber trusses. Smaller hurricane ties can also be used to reinforce furniture or shelves.

300mm*3mm*1.5mmTimber Connector Hurricane Ties are galvanized metal connectors engineered to secure and reinforce timber structures at critical joints. Manufactured from Q235 carbon steel with Z275g coating, and also available in SS304 and SS316 stainless steel, these hurricane ties provide reliable load transfer between beams, rafters, and supporting members in wood frame construction.
With hot-dip galvanized surface treatment and precision stamping, each tie offers dependable corrosion resistance and a clean, burr-free finish for fast, safe installation. Standard sizes cover light-duty furniture and shelf assemblies as well as heavier structural connections in wooden house beams.
| Size (mm) | Thickness | Typical Use |
|---|---|---|
| 140 × 40 | 1.0 mm | Cabinet, furniture and shelf connections |
| 150 × 35 | 1.0 mm | Light timber frames and storage shelving |
| 300 × 30 | 1.5 mm | Wooden house beams and structural reinforcement |
Attach the two long sides of the hurricane tie to the structure, drill the nails into the holes along the long sides, and ensure they are securely fastened.
For structural applications, the correct number of fasteners, tie position, and edge distance should be determined according to the connection design and applicable building requirements.
Installation Tip: Keep the tie flush against the timber surface and drive nails perpendicular to the wood grain to avoid splitting. For heavier loads, combine with joist hangers, angle brackets, and timber anchors to complete the connection system.
Hurricane ties are used for connecting and reinforcing wooden house beams, cabinets and other furniture, as well as storage shelves. Their compact geometry makes them suitable for both structural timber framing and lighter interior hardware applications.
For a complete timber connection system, hurricane ties are often used together with galvanized strap ties, timber connector nail plates, and other hurricane tie models.
