The Simpson HGLTV411.25-2 Heavy Top-Flange Hanger from Simpson Strong-Tie is built for structural composite lumber header connections that demand high load capacity and long-term reliability. Engineered to cradle a double 3-1/2 in. x 11-1/4 in. engineered wood member, this top-flange hanger delivers strong, stable support underneath the joist, rafter, or beam. Top-flange nail holes are precisely sized and strategically positioned to prevent header degradation caused by splitting of laminations, protecting the structural integrity of the connection over time. The Funnel Flange design guides beams smoothly into position during installation, reducing placement effort without compromising performance. With a heavy 3-gauge steel top flange and a 7-gauge steel stirrup, the HGLTV411.25-2 is suited for demanding floor, roof, and framing assemblies - including weld-on applications where welding is required or preferred.

Key Features

• 3-gauge steel top flange - provides the heavy-duty strength needed for high-load SCL header applications, giving builders confidence in structural performance.
• 7-gauge steel stirrup - offers a sturdy cradle for the double engineered wood member, maintaining alignment and load transfer at the connection point.
• Precisely located top-flange nail holes - sized and positioned to prevent lamination splitting in the header, preserving the integrity of the structural composite lumber over the life of the assembly.
• Funnel Flange design - guides beams into position quickly and accurately, reducing installation time and minimizing the need for repeated adjustments on the job site.
• Compatible with weld-on applications - expands installation flexibility for projects where welded connections are required or preferred, without needing a separate product.
• Suitable for I-joist installations (with required web stiffeners) - allows use across a broader range of engineered wood framing scenarios, making this a versatile choice for mixed-member assemblies.
• Simpson Strong-Tie gray paint finish - provides a consistent, recognizable finish that meets the standards associated with the Simpson Strong-Tie product line.

Why This Product

• Engineered for high-load SCL header connections - the HGLTV411.25-2 is specifically designed for structural composite lumber applications that carry heavy loads, making it the right fit when standard hangers fall short in demanding framing assemblies.
• Dual-gauge steel construction where it counts - the combination of a 3-gauge top flange and 7-gauge stirrup means structural strength is concentrated at the critical load-bearing points, giving this hanger a well-matched construction for its intended application.
• Installation features that reduce labor on the job site - the Funnel Flange design and strategically located nail holes work together to speed up placement and fastening, helping crews work more efficiently without sacrificing accuracy.
• Versatile enough for multiple connection types - approved for SCL headers, double engineered wood joists, I-joist assemblies, and weld-on applications, this hanger covers a range of structural framing scenarios from a single product.
