Product Description
The Simpson HB3.56/9.25 Top Flange Hanger for Heavy Beam 3-1/2x9-1/4 is a heavy-duty connector from Simpson engineered to carry medium to high loads in solid sawn and engineered wood construction. Designed for beams measuring 3-1/2 x 9-1/4 inches, this top-flange hanger provides a structurally reliable connection for residential and commercial framing applications where performance and ease of installation both matter.
Key Features
- Top-flange design - allows the hanger to be fastened to the supporting member before the carried beam is placed, streamlining the installation sequence and reducing the need for temporary support
- Full-height joist flange - captures the top chord of the joist to prevent rotation under load, keeping structural members properly aligned throughout the life of the assembly
- One-piece construction - eliminates the cost and potential weak points associated with welded hangers, delivering a dependable connection in a single, ready-to-install component
- Sized for 3-1/2 x 9-1/4 heavy beam applications - provides a precise fit for solid sawn and engineered wood members of those dimensions, removing guesswork during layout and fastening
- 10 gauge steel with a galvanized finish - combines the strength needed for medium to high load conditions with corrosion resistance suited to typical interior and protected framing environments
Why This Product
- Simplifies framing workflow - the top-flange configuration lets installers secure the hanger to the header or beam before setting the carried member, reducing the number of hands needed on the job and speeding up the framing process
- Rotation prevention built in - the full-height joist flange actively holds the joist top chord in place, which means less corrective work during and after installation and greater long-term structural integrity
- Cost-effective heavy-load solution - one-piece construction delivers the load capacity needed for heavy beam connections without the added expense of welded fabrication, making it a practical choice for budget-conscious structural work
- Made in the United States - domestic production supports consistent material and quality standards, giving builders and contractors confidence in the product they are incorporating into structural assemblies
