Product Description
The Simpson Top-Flange Face Mount Hanger is a heavy-duty hybrid connector that brings together the structural benefits of both face-mount and top-mount hanger designs in a single fitting. Engineered specifically for 5-1/8 x 12 lumber members, this 12-gauge steel hanger delivers positive bearing support through its top flange while also allowing secure face-nailing attachment to the supporting member - giving builders a reliable, code-friendly solution for demanding floor, roof, and deck framing assemblies. A concealed "A" flange configuration makes it a practical choice where a cleaner structural profile is preferred.
Key Features
- Hybrid Top-Flange and Face-Mount Design - Combines the load-bearing alignment of a top-mount hanger with the secure face-nailing attachment of a face-mount hanger, reducing the need for two separate connector types on a single framing connection.
- 12-Gauge Steel Construction - Heavy-gauge steel provides the structural integrity needed for high-load floor, roof, and deck framing applications where connector performance cannot be compromised.
- Sized for 5-1/8 x 12 Members - Purpose-built internal dimensions seat 5-1/8 x 12 engineered lumber, glulam, or solid sawn joists precisely, eliminating fitment guesswork during installation.
- Zinc Galvanized G90 Coating - A G90 zinc galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance, making this hanger suitable for structural framing environments where moisture exposure is a concern.
- Concealed "A" Flange Configuration - The recessed flange design keeps the connector profile low-profile after installation, supporting architectural or aesthetic framing requirements without sacrificing structural performance.
- Top-Flange Bearing Surface - The integrated top flange provides positive bearing support and simplifies installation alignment, helping framers position and fasten the hanger accurately the first time.
Why This Product
- One Connector, Two Hanger Functions - The hybrid face-mount and top-mount design eliminates the need to source separate connectors for applications that require both bearing support and face-nailing attachment, streamlining procurement and installation on complex framing projects.
- Built for Engineered Lumber and Glulam - Sized to match 5-1/8 x 12 engineered lumber and glulam dimensions precisely, this hanger is a direct fit for the oversized members commonly used in modern structural assemblies where dimensional lumber falls short.
- Corrosion-Resistant Finish for Long-Term Performance - The Zinc Galvanized G90 coating protects the connector over the life of the structure, making it a dependable choice for framing assemblies exposed to humidity or other corrosive conditions.
- Domestic Simpson Quality - Produced by Simpson, a widely recognized name in structural connectors, this hanger is made in the United States and reflects the consistent manufacturing standards professionals expect for load-bearing framing connections.

Frequently Asked Questions
What lumber size is the HU5.25/12TF designed to support?
The HU5.25/12TF is purpose-built for 5-1/8 x 12 lumber members, with an internal width of 5.25 inches and a height of 12 inches to properly seat that specific joist or beam size.
What makes this a "hybrid" hanger compared to a standard joist hanger?
The HU5.25/12TF incorporates the advantages of both face-mount and top-mount hanger designs in a single connector. Its top flange provides positive bearing support and simplified installation alignment, while its face-nailing capability allows the hanger to be securely attached to the supporting member for enhanced load transfer.
What gauge steel is used, and what corrosion protection does this hanger have?
The HU5.25/12TF is constructed from heavy-duty 12-gauge steel and is finished with a G90 Zinc Galvanized coating, which provides reliable corrosion resistance suitable for both protected and exposed environments.
Is there any option for a cleaner finished appearance with this hanger?
Yes. The HU5.25/12TF is available with one "A" flange concealed, which provides a cleaner finished appearance where aesthetics or clearance may be a consideration in the installation.
