The Simpson Quadruple 2 x 14 Face-Mount Hanger is an extra-heavy-capacity girder hanger engineered for high-load structural framing where standard hangers fall short. Built by Simpson for demanding applications that call for robust girder support, this face-mount hanger combines double-shear nailing technology with heavy-gauge construction to deliver reliable, high-strength connections in residential and commercial framing projects.

Key Features

• Extra-heavy-capacity design - purpose-built for girder support applications, giving builders the load performance needed where lighter hangers would be insufficient
• Double-shear nailing technology - distributes load forces through two points on each joist nail rather than one, significantly increasing connection strength and overall load-carrying capacity
• Quadruple 2 x 14 configuration - accommodates four 2 x 14 members in a single connection, reducing the number of separate hangers needed on large structural assemblies
• Face-mount installation style - attaches directly to the face of the supporting member for straightforward positioning and a secure, predictable fit during installation
• Zinc Galvanized G90 coating - provides a layer of corrosion resistance that helps protect the hanger against moisture and environmental exposure over the life of the structure
• Value-engineered construction - delivers high load performance at a cost-effective price point, making it a practical choice for contractors managing budgets on high-load projects

Why This Product

• Engineered for the most demanding girder connections - the extra-heavy-capacity rating means this hanger is specifically designed for structural scenarios where conventional hangers cannot safely meet load requirements, giving builders confidence in critical connections
• Stronger connections through proven nailing technology - double-shear nailing is a well-established method for maximizing shear strength at each nail point, translating directly into a more reliable and higher-capacity joint compared to single-shear alternatives
• Consolidates multiple members into one hanger - the quadruple-member configuration handles a four-ply 2 x 14 beam assembly in a single fitting, streamlining installation and reducing hardware complexity on large framing layouts
• Backed by Simpson quality and domestic production - manufactured in the United States by Simpson, a brand widely trusted in structural connector applications, supporting consistent quality standards on job sites

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of structural application is the HGUS214-4 designed for?

The HGUS214-4 is designed as an extra-heavy-capacity hanger specifically for applications requiring girder support, making it well-suited for high-load framing scenarios where standard hangers would be insufficient.

What is double-shear nailing and why does it matter?

Double-shear nailing is a nailing method that distributes the load through two points on each joist nail rather than one. This technique significantly increases the connection's strength and load-carrying capacity compared to single-shear connections.

What coating does the HGUS214-4 have, and what protection does it offer?

The HGUS214-4 features a Zinc Galvanized G90 coating, which provides a layer of corrosion resistance to help protect the hanger against moisture and environmental exposure over time.

What are the key dimensions of the HGUS214-4?

The HGUS214-4 has a width of 6-9/16 inches, a height of 12-5/8 inches, and a B dimension of 4 inches. It is constructed from 12-gauge steel. Note that product dimensions and/or nail holes may differ from the picture.
