Product Description
The Simpson MBHA5.50/7.25 Masonry Hanger from Simpson is a top-flange concrete and masonry hanger built as a single-piece, non-welded connector measuring 5-1/2 in. wide by 7-1/4 in. tall. Compatible with solid sawn lumber, trusses, and engineered wood products, this structural connector is designed to deliver consistent load performance in concrete and masonry framing applications where reliability and installation flexibility both matter.
Key Features
- Single-piece, non-welded construction - eliminates weld-point weak spots so structural integrity stays consistent throughout the connector
- Top-flange design for concrete and masonry - seats securely into concrete or masonry substrates, making it the right fit for ledger-free bearing conditions
- Compatible with solid sawn lumber, trusses, and engineered wood products - works across a broad range of framing members so one connector handles multiple project types
- G90 galvanized finish - provides a protective zinc coating that resists corrosion in typical construction environments, supporting long-term durability
- Formed from 10-gauge steel - delivers the rigidity and load-bearing capacity required for demanding structural connections
- Seat can be skewed at 45 deg. only - accommodates angled framing layouts, with dedicated MBHAR and MBHAL configurations available for skew-right and skew-left installations
Why This Product
- High load capacity in a compact form - at the 7-1/4 in. height, this masonry hanger supports up to 3,495 lb. download and 1,585 lb. uplift, making it well suited for structurally demanding concrete and masonry framing situations
- Versatile member compatibility - because it accepts solid sawn lumber, trusses, and engineered wood products, contractors can use a single hanger type across varied framing materials on the same job site
- Angled installation capability - the 45 deg. skew option gives builders the flexibility to handle non-perpendicular framing conditions without sourcing specialty hardware outside this product line
- American-made quality with corrosion-resistant finish - the G90 galvanized coating and domestic production reflect the consistent material and dimensional standards that structural connectors require
