Frequently Asked Questions
- What lumber size is the HUC38 designed to support?
- The HUC38 is specifically designed for use with 3x8 dimensional lumber in face-mount joist hanger applications.
- Why choose a concealed-flange hanger over a standard face-mount hanger?
- The concealed header flanges on the HUC38 keep the metal hardware hidden behind the header, resulting in cleaner visible lines. This makes it especially well-suited for exposed framing where appearance is important alongside structural performance.
- What gauge steel is the HUC38 made from, and why does it matter?
- The HUC38 is fabricated from 14-gauge (68 mil) steel, which classifies it as a heavy-duty hanger. This heavier gauge provides the additional strength and elevated safety factors required for demanding structural applications.
- Is the HUC38 suitable for use in environments where corrosion is a concern?
- The HUC38 features a galvanized finish, which provides a layer of corrosion resistance, making it more suitable for environments where moisture exposure may be a factor compared to uncoated steel hardware.
