Product Description
The Simpson High Wind Uplift Purlin Heavy Hanger is a heavy top-flange hanger engineered for structural connections where very high uplift and down load capacity are required. Built to support joists on purlins or beams in both wood and cold-formed steel construction, this hanger is purpose-built for high-wind applications where standard connectors fall short. Its robust dual-gauge construction delivers the performance and reliability that demanding structural environments require.
Key Features
- High Wind Uplift Design - Specifically engineered for high-wind structural connections, providing enhanced uplift resistance that goes beyond what standard hangers are rated to deliver, giving builders confidence in hurricane-prone or high-load zones.
- Heavy Top-Flange Construction - The heavy top-flange profile transfers loads more effectively at the connection point, making this hanger suitable for applications demanding very high uplift and down load capacity.
- Dual-Material Compatibility - Approved for supporting joists on purlins or beams in both wood and cold-formed steel construction, reducing the need for separate connectors across mixed-material framing systems.
- Dual-Gauge Build - A 3-gauge top flange paired with a 7-gauge stirrup balances rigidity where it counts most with the structural toughness needed to handle heavy-duty load conditions without compromise.
- Simpson Strong-Tie Gray Paint Finish - The factory-applied finish helps protect the connector during handling and installation, maintaining the integrity of the product from jobsite delivery through final inspection.
Why This Product
- Built for High-Wind Structural Demands - Unlike general-purpose joist hangers, this connector is purpose-designed for high-wind uplift applications, making it a reliable choice for projects in regions with stringent wind-load requirements.
- Versatile Across Construction Types - Its compatibility with both wood framing and cold-formed steel means one hanger solution covers multiple structural scenarios, simplifying procurement and reducing on-site confusion.
- Heavy-Duty Gauging for Maximum Load Performance - The combination of a 3-gauge top flange and 7-gauge stirrup delivers the structural mass needed for connections requiring very high uplift and down load values, where lighter connectors are simply not rated to perform.
- American-Made Quality from Simpson - Produced domestically and finished with Simpson Strong-Tie gray paint, this hanger reflects the material standards and construction quality that structural professionals rely on for code-critical connections.
