The Simpson WP210 Welded Top-Flange Joist Hanger is a heavy-duty connector built for supporting joists on purlins or beams across a broad range of structural framing situations. Engineered by Simpson, this welded top-flange hanger handles wood-to-wood, wood-to-steel, and cold-formed steel connections with equal capability, making it a go-to choice for contractors tackling both straightforward and complex framing layouts. Its combination of robust 12 ga. stirrup material and generous angular flexibility gives builders a reliable, adaptable fastening solution for 2 in. x 10 in. joist applications.

Key Features

• Welded top-flange construction - delivers a stronger, more rigid connection than bent alternatives, reducing the risk of movement or fastener fatigue in load-bearing assemblies.
• Skew capacity up to 84 deg. - accommodates a wide variety of framing angles so installers can work confidently in non-standard or irregular layouts without sourcing specialty hardware.
• Slope capacity up to 45 deg. - supports both conventional and steeply pitched roof or floor framing, reducing the need for field modifications or custom workarounds.
• 12 ga. stirrup material - provides substantial structural integrity suited to demanding load conditions in residential and light commercial framing projects.
• Compatible with multiple connection types - approved for wood-to-wood, wood-to-steel, and cold-formed steel framing applications, giving this single hanger broad utility across different build conditions.
• Simpson Strong-Tie Gray Paint finish - offers a protective coating that resists surface corrosion during normal indoor framing use, with hot-dip galvanized options available for projects requiring enhanced moisture resistance.

Why This Product

• Engineered for angular versatility - with skew allowance up to 84 deg. and slope allowance up to 45 deg., this joist hanger handles skewed and sloped installations that would require multiple different connectors from other product lines.
• One hanger, multiple connection environments - its approval for wood-to-wood, wood-to-steel, and cold-formed steel applications means builders can standardize on a single connector type across varied framing conditions on the same job site.
• Heavy-gauge welded build for load confidence - the 97 mil (12 ga.) welded stirrup construction provides the structural durability needed when supporting joists on purlins or beams where connection integrity is critical.
• Trusted Simpson quality, made in the United States - the WP210 carries the Simpson name and domestic manufacturing behind it, giving specifiers and inspectors a familiar, recognized product with a well-documented approval profile.
