Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie LUS44 LUS Series G90 Galvanized Face-Mount Joist Hanger is an easy-to-install, economical connector designed for 4x4 nominal lumber. Built from 18-gauge steel with a G90 zinc galvanized finish for enhanced corrosion resistance, the LUS44 provides reliable support underneath joists, rafters, or beams to create strong, load-bearing connections. Its patented double-shear nailing design distributes the load through two points on each joist nail, delivering greater strength while requiring fewer nails for faster, more efficient installation.
