The Simpson 3 x 16 Concealed-Flange Heavy Face-Mount Hanger HUC316 is a heavy-duty joist hanger engineered by Simpson for structural framing applications that call for additional strength and safety factors beyond what standard hangers provide. Its concealed header flanges set it apart in exposed framing situations, delivering secure joist-to-header connections without sacrificing clean, unobtrusive visible lines where the framing remains in view.

Key Features

• Concealed header flanges - keep visible framing lines clean and tidy, making this hanger a practical choice for exposed framing conditions where appearance and structural integrity both matter
• Heavy face-mount configuration - provides a dependable joist-to-header connection designed to handle demanding loads, giving builders confidence in applications that require extra strength and safety margins
• 14 ga. (68 mil) steel construction - delivers the heavy-duty durability needed for robust framing connections, supporting the additional load requirements this hanger is engineered to meet
• Galvanized finish - adds a layer of corrosion resistance to help protect the hanger in challenging environments and extend the long-term reliability of the connection
• Sized for 3x16 dimensional lumber - purpose-built to accommodate larger framing members, making it well suited for heavy structural assemblies where standard hanger sizes fall short

Why This Product

• Built for demanding structural work - engineered specifically for framing applications requiring additional strength and safety factors, this heavy face-mount hanger is a dependable solution when standard hangers are not sufficient for the load at hand
