The Simpson Double 3 x 6 Face-Mount Joist Hanger is a heavy-duty connector engineered by Simpson for framing applications where a double-member joist connection is required for increased load capacity. Constructed from 14-gauge steel with a G90 zinc galvanized coating, this face-mount hanger is built to deliver structural integrity and long-term corrosion resistance in demanding residential and commercial framing projects.

Key Features

• Face-mount design for double 3 x 6 lumber members - allows secure, code-compliant connections where side-loading a beam or header is not practical, giving framers flexibility in layout and installation
• 14-gauge steel construction - provides the heavy-duty load-bearing strength needed for structures with elevated safety requirements, reducing the risk of connection failure under load
• G90 zinc galvanized coating - offers reliable corrosion resistance in moisture-prone environments, helping the hanger maintain structural performance over the long term without premature degradation
• Double-member joist configuration - supports paired 3 x 6 joists in a single hanger, consolidating the connection point and simplifying the framing layout where higher load transfer is needed

Why This Product

• Built for demanding double-joist applications - the face-mount hanger is specifically sized for double 3 x 6 lumber, making it a purpose-built solution rather than a workaround, so contractors get a precise, reliable fit every time
• Corrosion resistance you can count on - the G90 zinc galvanized coating is designed for environments where moisture exposure is a real concern, helping ensure the connection stays structurally sound season after season
• Trusted Simpson engineering - backed by one of the most recognized names in structural connectors, this hanger reflects the design standards and quality control that engineers and contractors rely on for load-critical framing connections
• American-made quality - produced in the United States, this hanger meets the manufacturing standards that building professionals expect from a structural connector used in safety-critical applications
