S-SEN Timber Connector Hurricane Ties are structural fasteners in wooden structures used to increase the stability between walls, roofs and frames to withstand severe weather such as typhoons.
Excellent durability and corrosion resistance
Heavy-wall galvanized: Hot-dip galvanized for outdoor and wet environments.
Stainless steel options: Available in 304 or 316 stainless steel for coastal locations.
Easy and efficient installation
Pre-drilled holes: Precise pre-drilled holes increase installation efficiency.
Compact design: Optimized for embedding into wood while maintaining strength.
| Category of Parameters | Define |
| Main Material | High strength steel: ASTM A653 Gr.550 (G90/Z275) |
| Antiseptic Treatment | Hot-dip galvanizing: ASTM A123/ISO 1461 |
| Common Thickness | 1.2mm (16 GA), 1.5mm, 1.8mm (14 GA), 2.0mm etc |
Calculation of design load: According to the basic wind speed, building importance grade, roof slope and other parameters at the location of the project, the structural engineer calculates the uplift force and lateral force to be resisted.
Match wood size: Measure the cross-sectional size of the wood to be joined (e.g. 2x4, 2x6, 2x8 inches, etc.) and select connectors that are compatible with the size.
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.
