The Simpson HUC212-3 Concealed-Flange Heavy Face-Mount Hanger is a heavy-duty structural connector from Simpson engineered for framing applications that demand additional strength and elevated safety factors. Built to face-mount triple 2x12 wood joists to wood, masonry, and concrete headers, this hanger features concealed header flanges that keep visible lines clean and refined in exposed framing conditions - delivering both structural dependability and a polished appearance where aesthetics matter alongside performance.

Key Features

• Concealed header flanges - tuck out of sight against the header, producing cleaner visible lines in exposed framing conditions without sacrificing load capacity
• Extra optional triangle holes - allow additional fastening points when higher load demands require it, giving installers built-in flexibility on the job
• Tested, load rated, and code compliant - the HUC series meets recognized code standards so contractors and inspectors have confidence in every installation
• Compatible with wood, masonry, and concrete headers - broad substrate versatility means a single hanger model works across multiple structural conditions on the same project
• 14-gauge steel construction - provides the heavy-duty thickness needed for applications where standard hangers are not adequate
• Zinc Galvanized G90 finish - delivers extra corrosion resistance, extending service life in demanding construction environments

Why This Product

• Built for demanding structural loads - specifically designed for structures requiring additional strength and safety factors, making it the appropriate choice when standard-duty hangers fall short for triple 2x12 joist assemblies
• Aesthetics without compromise - the concealed-flange design keeps the header connection hidden, so structural integrity and a finished appearance are achieved in the same product rather than trading one for the other
• Versatile across substrates - installs to wood, masonry, and concrete headers, reducing the need to source different connectors for different framing conditions on the same build
• Code-compliant confidence out of the box - HUC-series hangers are tested and load rated, so the product arrives ready to satisfy inspection requirements without additional engineering steps
