Product Description
The Simpson Double 2 x 14 Top-Flange Face Mount Hanger is a hybrid joist hanger engineered by Simpson to combine the load-handling benefits of both face-mount and top-mount connection methods in a single fitting. Built for double 2x14 joist-to-header connections, this hanger is designed to meet the demands of high-load structural applications where code-compliant, load-rated hardware is required. Its double-shear nailing design - where each nail engages both the joist and the header - distributes force across two points per nail, delivering measurably stronger connections than standard single-shear alternatives.
Key Features
- Hybrid face-mount and top-mount design - gives installers the structural benefits of both hanger types in one product, reducing the need for separate hardware in demanding connection scenarios.
- Double-shear nailing combined with face-nailing - each nail engages both the joist and header, spreading the load across two points per nail for stronger, more reliable connections under high loads.
- Embossed top flange - adds connection strength at the top of the hanger, reinforcing the joist-to-header joint where uplift and lateral forces are most critical.
- Zinc galvanized coating - the G94 finish provides corrosion resistance, making this hanger suitable for a broad range of construction environments where bare steel would degrade over time.
- Tested, load-rated, and code-compliant - part of the HUSTF series, which means the hanger has been independently verified to meet applicable code standards, simplifying approval on inspected projects.
- Made in the United States - produced domestically under Simpson quality standards, offering builders confidence in consistency and material integrity.
Why This Product
- One hanger, two connection methods - the hybrid face-mount and top-mount design eliminates the guesswork of choosing between hanger types, giving structural builders a single solution engineered specifically for high-load double 2x14 joist applications.
- Built-in code compliance - because the HUSTF series is tested and load-rated, contractors and engineers can specify this hanger with confidence on permitted projects without sourcing additional documentation.
- Double-shear nailing for stronger load distribution - the nailing geometry spreads force across two contact points per nail, making this hanger well suited for connections where a standard single-shear joist hanger would be undersized or marginal.
- G94 galvanized finish for long-term durability - the zinc galvanized coating resists corrosion throughout the service life of the structure, reducing the risk of connection degradation in moisture-prone framing environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of fasteners are required for the HUS214-2TF hanger?
The HUS214-2TF requires 0.162" x 3-1/2" nails as the primary fastener. When used with 3x carrying members, use 0.162" x 2-1/2" nails in the header and 0.162" x 3-1/2" nails in the joist.
What makes the double-shear nailing design beneficial?
Double-shear nailing means each nail is installed into both the joist and header, distributing the load through two points on each joist nail. This method provides greater strength compared to single-shear connections, making it well suited for high-load applications.
Can the HUS214-2TF hanger be modified on the job site?
No. This economical joist hanger cannot be modified. It must be installed as designed to maintain its tested and load-rated performance, and it is not acceptable for nailer or welded applications.
What coating does the HUS214-2TF feature, and why does it matter?
The HUS214-2TF features a Zinc Galvanized, G94 coating. This galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance, helping to protect the hanger in typical construction environments and contributing to the long-term integrity of the structural connection.
