The Simpson HU214TF HUTF Galvanized Top-Flange Face Mount Hanger is a heavy-duty hybrid joist hanger engineered by Simpson to deliver maximum down loads with a minimum number of fasteners when securing 2x14 joists to headers in structural framing applications. By combining the secure face-nailing attachment of a face-mount hanger with the bearing support of a top-mount hanger, the HUTF series gives builders a single versatile connector that handles both standard and angled framing conditions. Formed from 12-gauge steel with a G90 zinc galvanized finish, this hanger is built to perform in demanding construction environments where strength and corrosion resistance are equally important.

Key Features

• Hybrid face-mount and top-mount design - delivers the secure attachment of face-nailing alongside top-flange bearing support, so contractors get the structural benefits of both hanger types in a single connector without compromise.
• Face-nailing capability - allows the hanger to be securely attached to the supporting member, creating a rigid, load-transferring connection that minimizes movement at the joint.
• Skew and slope flexibility up to 45 deg. - the hanger can be skewed a maximum of 45 deg. or sloped downward to a maximum of 45 deg., making it well-suited for angled or non-standard framing configurations where a straight connection is not possible.
• 12-gauge steel construction - heavy-duty material thickness provides the structural integrity needed to carry significant joist loads in residential and commercial framing projects.
• G90 zinc galvanized finish - offers extra corrosion resistance, extending the service life of the hanger in environments where moisture exposure is a concern.
• Tested, load rated, and code compliant - HUTF-series hangers meet recognized building code requirements, giving builders and inspectors confidence in every installation without additional verification steps.
• Rough beam sizes available by special order - accommodates project-specific framing requirements beyond standard dimensions, expanding the range of applications this hanger can support.

Why This Product

• One connector, two hanger advantages - the hybrid HUTF design incorporates the benefits of both face-mount and top-mount hangers, reducing the need to source separate connectors for different framing scenarios and simplifying the fastening process on the job site.
• Maximum load capacity with fewer fasteners - engineered to deliver maximum down loads with a minimum number of fasteners, this hanger helps speed up installation without sacrificing the holding strength required for 2x14 structural members.
• Built-in installation flexibility - with skew and slope capacity up to 45 deg. in either direction, this connector handles complex roof framing, stair stringers, and other angled applications that would otherwise require custom solutions.
• Code-compliant confidence right out of the box - as a tested and load-rated product from Simpson, the HU214TF arrives with the documentation backing that modern construction projects demand, streamlining the inspection and approval process.
