The Simpson HGUS7.25/14 HGUS Galvanized Face-Mount Joist Hanger by Simpson is engineered for structural applications where higher load values are required. Built to support 7 in. x 14 in. engineered wood members, this heavy-duty face-mount hanger creates a strong, reliable connection between joists, rafters, or beams and their supporting structure. Constructed from 12-gauge steel with a G90 galvanized finish, it is a dependable solution for demanding load-bearing installations.

Key Features

• Double-shear nailing technology - distributes the load through two points on each joist nail, delivering greater strength at every connection point for high-load structural applications.
• Efficient nailing pattern - allows for the use of fewer nails and standard nails for all connections, reducing material costs and speeding up installation on the job site.
• Integral tabs must remain intact - tabs are a critical part of the structural design and must not be bent or removed, ensuring the hanger performs at its rated load capacity.
• 12-gauge steel construction - provides the rigidity and strength needed for heavy engineered wood members in demanding framing applications.
• G90 galvanized coating - offers extra corrosion resistance, helping the hanger hold up in moisture-prone environments over the long term.
• Installs with 16d common nails - uses readily available fasteners, keeping installation straightforward and compatible with standard job-site supplies.

Why This Product

• Built for high-load demands - the HGUS series is specifically designed for applications where higher load values are needed, making this hanger the right choice when standard hangers fall short on heavy engineered lumber framing projects.
• Faster installation without sacrificing strength - the double-shear nailing design lets installers use fewer nails while still achieving a strong, code-ready connection, saving time on large or complex framing jobs.
• Corrosion resistance where it counts - the G90 galvanized finish provides an added layer of protection against moisture and corrosion, extending the service life of the connection in exposed or humid conditions.
• Trusted Simpson engineering - part of Simpson's diverse line of face-mount hangers, this product reflects a design focused on consistent performance, straightforward installation, and compatibility with standard job-site fasteners.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size lumber or engineered wood is the HGUS7.25/14 designed to support?

The HGUS7.25/14 is designed for use with 7 in. x 14 in. engineered wood members, with a seat width of 7-1/4 in. and a hanger height of 12-7/16 in.

What type of nails should be used to install this hanger?

This hanger should be installed with 16d common nails. The double-shear nailing design allows for the use of fewer nails while still achieving strong, reliable connections.

What does the G90 galvanized coating provide?

The G90 galvanized coating provides extra corrosion resistance, making the HGUS7.25/14 suitable for environments where moisture exposure is a concern.

Why should the tabs on the HGUS7.25/14 not be bent or removed?

The tabs are an integral part of the hanger's structural design. Bending or removing them can compromise the load capacity and performance of the connection, so they must remain intact as manufactured.
