Product Description
The Simpson THAI-2 Adjustable I-Joist Truss Hanger is engineered specifically for use with I-joists, featuring extra-long straps that can be field-formed to provide height adjustability and top-flange hanger convenience. The THAI-2 is a configurable-width hanger (W1) designed to deliver reliable load transfer while protecting the integrity of the I-joist's bottom flange through positive-angle nailing that helps eliminate splitting. Built from 14-gauge galvanized steel, this hanger delivers durability and corrosion resistance in demanding structural applications.
