The Simpson HUC414-2 Heavy Face-Mount Concealed-Flange Hanger is a heavy-duty joist hanger engineered by Simpson for structures requiring additional strength and safety factors. Designed to support double 4x14 lumber members, this face-mount hanger features concealed header flanges that deliver cleaner visible lines in exposed conditions - making it a strong fit for both demanding structural applications and finished environments where appearance matters. Built from 14-gauge steel with a G90 zinc galvanized coating, it is rated for installation into wood, masonry, and concrete substrates.

Key Features

• Concealed header flanges - keep the hanger out of the sightline in exposed framing conditions, resulting in a cleaner, more finished appearance without sacrificing structural integrity
• 14-gauge steel construction - provides the heavy-duty strength needed for structures with elevated load and safety requirements
• G90 zinc galvanized finish - delivers extra corrosion resistance, making this hanger suitable for environments where moisture exposure is a concern
• Extra optional triangle holes - allow for additional fasteners when greater load capacity is needed, giving installers flexibility to meet higher load demands
• Tested, load rated, and code compliant - the HUC series meets code requirements so builders and inspectors can rely on documented performance data rather than guesswork
• Compatible with wood, masonry, and concrete - broad substrate compatibility means one hanger solution works across multiple construction contexts, reducing the need for specialized alternatives
• 7-1/8 in. seat width for double 4x14 members - precisely sized to securely cradle the specified joist configuration, ensuring a stable, properly seated connection

Why This Product

• Built for high-demand structural conditions - the HUC414-2 is specifically designed for applications requiring additional strength and safety factors, making it a reliable choice for load-critical connections that standard hangers are not rated to handle
• Aesthetics and performance in one hanger - the concealed-flange design means this hanger does not force a trade-off between structural capacity and visual cleanliness, a clear advantage in exposed framing where both matter
• Verified performance you can document - HUC-series hangers are tested and load rated, giving contractors, engineers, and inspectors concrete data to reference during project review and permitting
• Versatile substrate compatibility expands its usefulness - the ability to connect wood joists to wood, masonry, or concrete structures means this hanger works across a wide range of residential and commercial framing scenarios without requiring a different product for each substrate type

Frequently Asked Questions

What size lumber is the HUC414-2 designed to support?

The HUC414-2 is designed for a nominal joist size of Double 4x14, with a seat width of 7-1/8 in. to accommodate that member configuration.

What nails should be used to install the HUC414-2?

Install with 0.162 in. x 3-1/2 in. nails in the header and 0.148 in. x 3 in. nails in the joist for proper installation per product specifications.

What does the G90 galvanized coating provide?

The G90 zinc galvanized finish provides extra corrosion resistance, making the HUC414-2 suitable for use in environments where moisture exposure is a concern.

What are the optional triangle holes on the HUC414-2 used for?

The extra optional triangle holes are provided to allow for additional fasteners, which can increase the load capacity of the hanger when greater strength is required for the application.
