ClarkDietrich CDHT8 HURRICANE TIE 1-7/16" x 8" x 43mils (18ga)

Product Description

The CDHT6 and CDHT8 are heavy duty hurricane ties designed to securely connect trusses to the top of wall plates in wood-framed walls. These high capacity clips are essential for resisting both lateral and uplift forces. In many regions, using hurricane ties is required to meet local building codes. These ties create strong connections and play a part in establishing a continuous load path from the roof to the foundation, which is highly advantageous for maintaining structural integrity. Hurricane ties like the CDHT6 and CDHT8 play a key role in preventing storm damage, especially in areas prone to experience hurricanes or with continuous wind loads.
