Product Description
The Simpson LUS26SS LUS Stainless-Steel Face-Mount Joist Hanger for 2x6 by Simpson Strong-Tie is an easy-to-install, economical face-mount hanger engineered for common lumber sizes. Featuring a patented double-shear nailing design, this hanger distributes the load through two points on each joist nail for greater strength - allowing for fewer nails, faster installation, and the use of all common nails for the same connection. Constructed from 18-gauge stainless steel, the LUS26SS delivers high and severe corrosion resistance, making it ideal for demanding environments where long-term durability is critical.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What fasteners are required to install the LUS26SS?
- Stainless-steel connectors require stainless-steel fasteners. Install with Simpson Strong-Tie Strong-Drive SD Connector SS screws: (4) #9 x 1-1/2 in. screws in the header AND (4) #9 x 2-1/2 in. screws in the joist, OR (8) 0.148 in. x 3 in. Strong-Drive SCNR Ring-Shank Connector nails. Compatible models include: SD9112SS, SD9212SS, and SSA10D.
- What is the benefit of the double-shear nailing design?
- The patented double-shear nailing design distributes the load through two points on each joist nail, providing greater strength. This allows for fewer nails, faster installation, and the use of all common nails for the same connection.
- Can the tabs on the LUS26SS be bent or removed during installation?
- No. The tabs on the LUS26SS must not be bent or removed. Modifying the tabs can compromise the structural integrity and load performance of the hanger.
- Why should stainless steel fasteners be used with the LUS26SS?
- Because the LUS26SS is made from stainless steel for high and severe corrosion resistance, using non-stainless fasteners would introduce dissimilar metals that are susceptible to corrosion and could undermine the performance and longevity of the connection. Always pair stainless-steel connectors with stainless-steel fasteners.
