Product Description
The Simpson Double 2 x 6 Face-Mount Joist Hanger ZMAX HHUS26-2Z is a heavy-capacity face-mount hanger from Simpson engineered for structural framing connections where a double 2x6 joist member must be secured with reliable, high-load performance. Built with a double-shear nailing design and finished in ZMAX heavy-duty galvanized coating, this hanger is a dependable choice for contractors and builders tackling demanding floor and roof framing applications where both strength and corrosion resistance are priorities.
Key Features
- Heavy-capacity face-mount design - handles higher structural loads than standard hangers, making it well-suited for framing applications where connection strength cannot be compromised.
- Double-shear nailing - distributes load through two points on each joist nail, delivering greater connection strength while allowing fewer nails compared to conventional single-shear hangers, which speeds up installation.
- Compatible with all common nails - eliminates the need for specialty fasteners, simplifying fastener inventory and reducing procurement complexity on the job site.
- ZMAX coating - provides enhanced corrosion resistance beyond standard G90 galvanizing, making this hanger a practical choice for framing environments exposed to moisture or other corrosive conditions.
- Sized for double 2x6 joist members - the 3 5/16 in. width and 3 in. base accommodate the double lumber configuration precisely, ensuring a proper fit without field modification.
Why This Product
- Strength without excess hardware - the double-shear nailing geometry achieves high load ratings with fewer nails, so crews spend less time fastening and more time framing without trading away connection integrity.
- Built-in corrosion protection - ZMAX galvanized coating goes beyond standard finishes to resist moisture-related deterioration, adding long-term durability to connections in challenging environments.
- No specialty fasteners required - working with all common nails means this hanger integrates into standard framing workflows without requiring a separate nail supply or special ordering of fasteners.
- Trusted Simpson engineering - manufactured in the United States by Simpson, a brand recognized across the structural connector industry, giving builders confidence in consistent quality and performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does double-shear nailing mean and why does it matter?
This increases the overall strength of the connection, which is why the HHUS26-2Z can achieve high load ratings even when using fewer nails than a conventional single-shear hanger.
What type of nails are required for the HHUS26-2Z?
The HHUS26-2Z is designed to work with all common nails, so there is no need for specialty fasteners. This makes it easier to maintain consistent fastener inventory on the job site.
What is ZMAX coating and what environments is it suited for?
ZMAX is a heavy-duty galvanized coating applied to provide enhanced corrosion resistance compared to standard G90 galvanizing. It is well-suited for applications where increased exposure to moisture or corrosive conditions may be a concern.
What lumber size does this hanger support?
This hanger is designed for a double 2x6 joist configuration, as indicated by the "26-2" designation in the model number. The width (W) of 3 5/16 inches accommodates the double 2x6 member, and the height (H) of 5 3/8 inches provides the appropriate seat depth for that lumber size.
