Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie MIU2.56/20 is a galvanized face-mount I-joist hanger engineered for commercial and high-load I-joist applications without requiring web stiffeners. Built from 16-gauge steel with a G90 zinc galvanized coating for enhanced corrosion resistance, this hanger is designed to provide reliable support underneath the joist, rafter, or beam for a strong, durable connection. The MIU series features positive-angle nailing (PAN) that minimizes splitting of the flanges while allowing faster, more efficient nailing from a better angle - making it a trusted choice for demanding structural applications with 2-1/2 in. x 20 in. engineered wood members.
