Product Description
The Simpson HB3.56/28 Top Flange Hanger for Heavy Beam is an engineered structural connector designed to carry medium to high loads in solid sawn and engineered wood framing applications. Built as a one-piece stamped steel hanger, the HB series delivers a cost-effective alternative to welded hangers without sacrificing load capacity or structural integrity. The full-height joist flange captures the top chord of the joist to resist rotation, making this hanger a dependable choice for heavy beam connections where performance and reliability are critical.
Key Features
- Top-Flange Design: Sits over the top of the carrying member for fast, accurate installation positioning.
- Full-Height Joist Flange: Captures the top chord of the joist, effectively preventing rotation under load.
- Medium to High Load Capacity: Engineered to handle demanding structural loads in both solid sawn and engineered wood applications.
- One-Piece Construction: Formed from a single piece of steel, offering a more economical solution compared to welded hangers.
- Galvanized Finish: Standard galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance for long-term performance.
- Hot-Dip Galvanized Option Available: May be ordered with a hot-dip galvanized finish for enhanced corrosion protection in demanding environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What beam size is the HB3.56/28 designed to fit?
- The HB3.56/28 is specifically sized for a 3-1/2 x 28 heavy beam, making it suitable for large engineered wood members or solid sawn lumber of those dimensions.
- How does the top-flange design affect installation?
- The top-flange design allows the hanger to sit over the top of the carrying member, which provides a natural positioning reference during installation for faster and more accurate placement compared to face-mount style hangers.
- What prevents the beam from rotating once it is seated in the hanger?
- The HB3.56/28 features a full-height joist flange that captures the top chord of the joist, which effectively resists rotation under load and helps maintain structural alignment over time.
- Is this hanger available with additional corrosion protection beyond the standard finish?
- Yes. While the HB3.56/28 comes standard with a galvanized finish, a hot-dip galvanized finish is also available as an option for applications in more demanding environments where enhanced corrosion resistance is required.
