Product Description
The Simpson HB5.12/14 Top Flange Hanger is a heavy-duty connector built for solid sawn lumber and engineered wood product beam connections where reliable load transfer and straightforward installation matter most. Sized specifically for 5x14 heavy beam applications, this one-piece stamped steel hanger mounts over the top of the supporting member, delivering a clean, code-friendly connection for medium to high load-bearing residential and commercial framing assemblies.
Key Features
- Top-Flange Mounting Design - The hanger installs over the top of the supporting member before the carried beam is set in place, streamlining the installation sequence and eliminating the need for a separate ledger board.
- Full-Height Joist Flange - Captures the top chord of the carried member to resist rotation under load, keeping the beam properly oriented and maintaining structural integrity in demanding framing conditions.
- 10-Gauge Steel Construction - Heavy-gauge steel provides the structural strength required for medium to high load applications, giving contractors confidence in connections that need to perform long-term.
- Galvanized Finish - Factory-applied galvanized coating guards against corrosion, making this hanger suitable for the range of interior and exterior framing environments where heavy beam connections are typically required.
- Broad Application Compatibility - Approved for use with solid sawn lumber and engineered wood products, this hanger adapts to the material choices most commonly specified in both residential and commercial structural framing.
Why This Product
- Precision-Fit for 5x14 Heavy Beam Connections - Engineered specifically for 5x14 beam sizing, this hanger eliminates guesswork and delivers a properly fitted connection without field modification or custom fabrication.
- Simplified Installation Through Top-Flange Engineering - The top-flange design lets installers position and fasten the hanger before lowering the beam into place, reducing labor complexity and improving jobsite efficiency on heavy timber and engineered lumber projects.
- Versatile Across Common Framing Materials - Compatibility with both solid sawn lumber and engineered wood products means this single hanger works across a wide range of beam specifications, reducing the need to source multiple connector types for different material combinations.
- Domestic Manufacturing - Produced in the United States, this Simpson hanger reflects consistent quality standards expected in structural connector applications where performance cannot be compromised.
