Product Description
The Simpson MIU4.75/16 MIU Galvanized Face-Mount Joist Hanger is a professional-grade connector from Simpson engineered specifically for commercial and high-load I-joist framing. Built to support 4-5/8 in. x 16 in. engineered wood members, this face-mount hanger delivers strong, reliable connections without requiring web stiffeners - streamlining installation on demanding structural applications. Its positive-angle nailing design further speeds up the fastening process while protecting the integrity of the joist flanges, making it a dependable choice for engineered wood framing projects where performance and efficiency matter.
Key Features
- Positive-angle nailing minimizes splitting of the flanges while permitting time-saving nailing from a better angle - protects engineered wood flanges from damage during installation while allowing crews to work faster and more comfortably.
- Designed for commercial and high-load I-joist applications without requiring web stiffeners - reduces material and labor requirements on the job site without sacrificing structural performance.
- Made from 16-gauge steel - provides the thickness and rigidity needed to handle the demands of high-load commercial joist connections.
- Galvanized with a G90 zinc coating - delivers enhanced corrosion resistance to help the hanger hold up over time in moisture-prone framing environments.
- These hangers cannot be modified - manufactured to precise tolerances for the specified member size, ensuring consistent structural integrity and code-compliant performance when installed as provided.
Why This Product
- Built for high-load engineered wood framing - the MIU series is purpose-designed for commercial I-joist applications, giving contractors a hanger that handles demanding loads without the need for additional web stiffener hardware.
- Faster, safer nailing with PAN design - positive-angle nailing allows installers to drive fasteners from a more natural angle, reducing flange splitting risk and cutting installation time on large commercial framing projects.
- G90 galvanized finish for lasting durability - the zinc galvanized coating offers a meaningful level of corrosion resistance, making this hanger a reliable long-term connection in structurally critical applications.
- American-made precision at a consistent standard - manufactured to exact specifications that cannot be field-altered, ensuring every installed connection meets the same structural benchmark across the entire project.
