Product Description
The Simpson HB616 Top-Flange Heavy Beam Hanger is built to handle medium to high loads in both solid sawn and engineered wood framing applications. Its full-height joist flange captures the top chord of the joist, preventing rotation and maintaining structural alignment under demanding conditions. The one-piece construction eliminates the complexity and added cost of welded alternatives, making this heavy beam hanger a reliable and efficient choice for residential and commercial framing projects where a 6x16 connection is required.
Key Features
- One-piece, top-flange design - eliminates the need for welded hangers, reducing material costs while maintaining structural integrity for high-load applications
- Full-height joist flange - captures the top chord of the joist to prevent rotation, keeping beams stable and properly aligned throughout the life of the structure
- Compatible with solid sawn and engineered wood - provides versatility across a wide range of framing applications without requiring different hardware for different lumber types
- Available for special order in sloped and/or skewed configurations - accommodates non-standard framing angles so builders are not limited to square connections
- G90 zinc galvanized finish - provides extra corrosion resistance, making this hanger suitable for environments where moisture exposure is a concern
Why This Product
- Cost-effective alternative to welded hangers - the efficient one-piece construction delivers comparable load-carrying performance for 6x16 beam applications without the higher cost typically associated with fabricated or welded connectors
- Engineered for rotation prevention - the full-height joist flange actively captures the top chord, adding a layer of structural control that standard hangers do not provide, which is especially important in heavy beam framing
- Built to handle demanding load requirements - designed specifically for medium to high load capacities in both solid sawn and engineered wood, this hanger is suited for structural connections where performance cannot be compromised
- Corrosion-resistant construction for long-term durability - the G90 galvanized coating offers extra protection against corrosion, supporting a longer service life in challenging jobsite and environmental conditions
