The Simpson HU810 Face-Mount Joist Hanger is a heavy-duty structural connector engineered by Simpson for framing applications that demand additional strength and safety. Built from 14-gauge steel with a G90 zinc galvanized finish, this hanger is designed to securely support nominal 8x10 lumber in demanding construction environments. Trusted by engineers and contractors alike, Simpson connectors are engineered and tested to perform and manufactured to the highest quality standards - making this hanger a dependable choice whether you are tackling a home project or meeting strict building code requirements.

Key Features

• "U" design allows for flexibility of placement on the header - gives installers greater freedom when positioning the hanger to suit varying framing conditions, reducing the need for adjustments on the job.
• Nominal joist size: 8x10 - purpose-built for heavy-duty framing connections where larger structural members are required.
• Made from 14-gauge steel - delivers the robust load-carrying capacity expected in high-demand structural applications.
• Galvanized (G90) for extra corrosion resistance - the zinc G90 coating provides a higher level of protection against moisture and the elements, helping the hanger maintain structural integrity over time.

Why This Product

• Heavy-duty performance for large-member framing - the HU810 is specifically designed for structures requiring additional strength and safety factors, making it well suited for load-critical connections involving 8x10 lumber.
• Enhanced corrosion protection built in - the G90 zinc galvanized coating goes beyond standard finishes to guard against moisture-related degradation, supporting long-term structural reliability in demanding environments.
• Installer-friendly design - the "U" design provides placement flexibility on the header so framing crews can work efficiently without being locked into a single positioning approach.
• Backed by Simpson engineering and testing standards - Simpson connectors are engineered and tested to perform, giving contractors and engineers confidence that the product meets the quality standards required for both residential and code-compliant construction.
