The Simpson Concealed-Flange Heavy Face-Mount Hanger is an engineered structural connector from Simpson built for framing applications that demand additional strength and elevated safety factors. Its concealed header flanges keep the header connection hidden, producing clean, unobtrusive visible lines that make it a natural fit for exposed architectural framing where structural performance and finished appearance must work together.

Key Features

• Concealed header flanges - hide the header connection from view, delivering clean lines in exposed framing conditions where visible hardware would detract from the finished look
• Heavy face-mount design - engineered specifically for structures requiring additional strength and elevated safety factors, going beyond what standard joist hangers provide
• 14-gauge (68 mil) steel construction - provides robust load-carrying capacity suited to demanding structural applications
• Galvanized finish - offers corrosion resistance, helping the connector hold up in challenging environments over the long term
• Configurable seat options - skewable seat and sloped seat configurations are available, giving builders flexibility when framing at non-perpendicular angles

Why This Product

• Purpose-built for heavy-duty framing - where a standard face-mount hanger falls short, this heavy concealed-flange hanger is specifically engineered to meet higher strength requirements and tighter safety margins
• Aesthetics without compromise - the concealed-flange design allows structural connections to disappear visually, making this hanger a go-to choice for finish-quality or architecturally exposed framing
• Adaptable to real-world job conditions - with available skewed and sloped seat configurations, this connector handles angled or non-standard framing scenarios that rigid hangers cannot accommodate
• Trusted Simpson engineering - produced by Simpson, a recognized name in structural connectors, this hanger carries the design rigor and quality control that demanding framing projects call for

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the HUC2.75/10 different from a standard face-mount joist hanger?

The HUC2.75/10 is a heavy-duty hanger specifically designed for structures requiring additional strength and elevated safety factors. Its concealed header flanges set it apart by keeping the header connection hidden, resulting in cleaner visible lines - a key advantage in exposed framing conditions where appearance matters alongside performance.

Is the HUC2.75/10 suitable for use in exposed architectural framing applications?

Yes. The concealed-flange design of the HUC series is specifically intended to provide clean, unobtrusive lines in exposed framing conditions, making it well suited for architectural or finish-quality structural applications where visible hardware would be undesirable.

Can the seat of the HUC2.75/10 be adjusted for angled or skewed framing?

Some models in the HUC series can be configured with a skewable seat as well as a seat that slopes up to 45 degrees, offering flexibility for non-perpendicular framing situations..

What gauge steel is used in the construction of the HUC2.75/10?

The HUC2.75/10 is manufactured from 14-gauge (68 mil) steel with a galvanized finish, providing the heavy-duty material thickness needed to meet the elevated load requirements and safety factors for which this hanger series is engineered.
