Product Description
The Simpson 3 x 14 Top-Flange Face Mount Hanger is a heavy-duty hybrid joist hanger from Simpson that brings together the structural advantages of both face-mount and top-mount designs in a single connector. Sized specifically for 3x14 dimensional lumber, this galvanized hanger is built for applications where secure, properly positioned joist connections are critical - combining top-flange seating with face-nailing capability to give installers both positive placement and a firm, reliable attachment to the supporting member.
Key Features
- Hybrid face-mount and top-mount design - delivers the load-carrying benefits of both hanger types in one connector, reducing the need for separate hardware and simplifying structural connections.
- Top-flange configuration - the flange seats over the top of the supporting member, providing positive positioning during installation and helping ensure consistent, accurate joist placement.
- Face-nailing capability - allows the hanger to be fastened directly to the face of the supporting member, creating a secure attachment point that resists movement and improves overall connection strength.
- Available with one concealed "A" flange - gives installers the option of a cleaner finished appearance without sacrificing structural performance, useful where exposed framing is visible.
- 12-gauge steel construction - heavy-gauge material supports demanding load requirements for 3x14 joist applications in residential and commercial framing projects.
- Zinc Galvanized G90 coating - provides a protective zinc layer that resists corrosion, making this hanger a dependable choice where moisture exposure is a concern.
- Made in the United States - manufactured domestically, supporting consistent quality standards throughout production.
Why This Product
- One connector, two installation methods - the hybrid design handles both top-flange positioning and face-nailing attachment, giving framers and contractors a versatile solution for 3x14 joist connections without juggling multiple hanger types.
- Built for corrosive environments - the G90 zinc galvanized coating offers meaningful protection against moisture and corrosion, making this hanger a practical choice for crawl spaces, decks, and other settings where bare steel would degrade over time.
- Cleaner installation when appearance matters - the option to conceal one "A" flange means the hanger can be used in exposed framing situations where a neater profile is preferred, without compromising the connection.
- Exact sizing for 3x14 lumber - engineered specifically for this joist dimension, the hanger delivers a precise fit that reduces on-site adjustment and helps maintain structural alignment throughout the framing process.

What lumber size is the HU314TF designed to support?
The HU314TF is specifically sized for 3x14 dimensional lumber, with an interior width of 2.5625 inches and a height of 13 inches to accommodate that joist size.
What type of corrosion protection does the HU314TF have?
The HU314TF features a Zinc Galvanized G90 coating, which provides a protective zinc layer that resists corrosion, making it suitable for use in environments where moisture exposure is a concern.
Can the HU314TF be installed with a concealed flange?
Yes. The HU314TF is available with one "A" flange concealed, which can provide a cleaner aesthetic appearance while still maintaining the structural integrity and load performance of the hanger.
