The Simpson HU416 Galvanized Face-Mount Joist Hanger is a heavy-duty structural connector engineered by Simpson for framing applications that demand additional strength and safety factors. Built to accommodate nominal 4x16 lumber, this face-mount hanger is the trusted choice of engineers and contractors who rely on connectors manufactured to the highest quality standards for demanding residential and commercial framing projects.

Key Features

• "U" design allows for flexibility of placement on the header - makes it easier to position the hanger accurately during framing, even in tight or complex structural configurations, saving time and reducing installation errors
• Designed for nominal 4x16 lumber - supports large dimensional members required in heavy-duty framing, giving you a secure and properly sized connection for substantial structural loads
• Constructed from 14-gauge steel - the heavier gauge delivers the additional structural strength needed for applications where standard hangers fall short
• Zinc Galvanized G90 coating - provides enhanced corrosion resistance for long-term durability, making this hanger suitable for demanding environments where moisture exposure is a concern

Why This Product

• Engineered for heavy-duty performance - the HU416 is specifically designed for structures requiring additional strength and safety factors, making it a reliable choice when standard joist hangers are not rated for the job
• Flexible installation for real-world framing conditions - the "U" design gives installers freedom of placement on the header, reducing the precision burden during layout and speeding up the framing process
• Built to last in tough conditions - the G90 galvanized finish goes beyond basic corrosion protection, helping the connector maintain its structural integrity over time in moisture-prone or exposed framing environments
• Backed by rigorous engineering and testing - Simpson connectors are engineered, tested, and manufactured to the highest quality standards, making the HU416 a dependable choice for projects that must meet or exceed building code requirements

Frequently Asked Questions

What size lumber is the HU416 designed to support?

The HU416 is designed for a nominal joist size of 4x16, making it suitable for heavy-duty framing applications that require a larger dimensional lumber connection.

What fasteners should be used to install the HU416?

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 a properly secured connection.

What is the gauge and coating of the HU416, and why does it matter?

The HU416 is made from 14-gauge steel and features a Zinc Galvanized G90 coating. The heavier gauge provides additional structural strength, while the G90 galvanized finish delivers enhanced corrosion resistance for long-term durability in demanding environments.

What advantage does the "U" design of the HU416 provide?

The "U" design allows for flexibility of placement on the header, making it easier to position and install the hanger accurately during framing, even in tight or complex structural configurations.
