Product Description
The Simpson Heavy Top-Flange Hanger for Engineered Lumber 7 x 22 is a heavy-duty structural connector built specifically for high-load structural composite lumber header connections and engineered lumber beam-to-header installations. Combining a robust dual-gauge steel construction with a top-flange design, this hanger delivers the load capacity and installation reliability that demanding residential and commercial framing applications require.
Key Features
- Dual-Gauge Steel Construction - A 3 Ga. steel top flange paired with a 7 Ga. steel stirrup provides the material strength needed to handle heavy loads without compromising structural integrity.
- Top-Flange Configuration - Seats the hanger at the top of the header, simplifying installation in engineered lumber framing and ensuring consistent, code-worthy connections.
- Lamination Split Prevention - Hole placement is precisely located to protect the SCL header from lamination splitting, preserving header integrity under high-load conditions.
- Simpson Gray Paint Finish - Factory-applied finish provides a baseline level of protection, with a hot-dip galvanized option available for projects requiring enhanced corrosion resistance.
- Designed for Structural Composite Lumber - Engineered specifically for SCL header applications, making it a direct fit for the load demands and dimensional requirements of engineered lumber systems.
- American-Made Quality - Produced to Simpson's manufacturing standards, supporting consistent performance across heavy-duty framing applications.
Why This Product
- Purpose-Built for High-Load SCL Headers - Unlike general-purpose hangers, this connector is engineered specifically for structural composite lumber header connections that demand elevated load capacity, reducing the guesswork in specifying the right hardware for critical framing points.
- Header Protection by Design - The strategically located nail holes actively prevent lamination splitting in the header, a failure mode that can compromise the entire connection in high-load SCL installations.
- Heavy-Gauge Steel Where It Counts - The combination of 3 Ga. top flange and 7 Ga. stirrup means buyers get material sizing matched to the structural demands of engineered lumber beam-to-header applications, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
- Finish Flexibility for Different Environments - The standard Simpson gray paint finish suits most interior framing conditions, while the availability of a hot-dip galvanized finish means the same hanger can be specified for projects with higher corrosion-resistance requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of lumber is the HGLTV7.12/22 designed for?
This hanger is designed specifically for structural composite lumber (SCL) header applications. It is engineered to handle high load performance demands associated with engineered lumber installations, making it suitable for heavy-duty SCL header connections.
How does this hanger help protect the header during installation?
The hole placement on the HGLTV7.12/22 is precisely located to prevent lamination splitting in the header. This is a critical design detail in high-load SCL applications where degradation caused by splitting could compromise structural integrity.
What materials and finish are used in the construction of this hanger?
The HGLTV7.12/22 features dual-gauge steel construction, combining a 3-gauge steel top flange with a 7-gauge steel stirrup. It comes with a factory-applied Simpson Strong-Tie gray paint finish. A hot-dip galvanized finish option is also available for applications requiring enhanced corrosion resistance.
What is the Funnel Flange design and how does it benefit installation?
The Funnel Flange is an innovative Simpson Strong-Tie design feature that simplifies beam installation by guiding the beam into position. This reduces labor time and improves installation accuracy, making the process more efficient in demanding engineered lumber applications.
