The Simpson Top Flange Face Mount Hanger is a heavy-duty structural connector engineered to support 5-1/8 x 16-1/2 in. joists and beams in demanding floor and roof framing applications. Its hybrid configuration seats over the top of the supporting member while also allowing face-nail attachment, delivering a stable, positive connection suited to heavy timber and engineered lumber framing systems where both positioning and pull-out resistance matter.

Key Features

• Hybrid top-flange and face-mount design - seats over the supporting member while allowing face-nailing, giving installers two points of attachment and a more secure, positive connection than a single-method hanger provides.
• Sized for 5-1/8 x 16-1/2 in. members - precisely matched to heavy timber and engineered lumber dimensions, eliminating field modification and ensuring a properly fitted seat every time.
• 12-gauge steel construction - provides the heavy-duty load-carrying capacity required for demanding structural framing applications where lighter-gauge hangers fall short.
• Zinc Galvanized G90 coating - delivers corrosion resistance appropriate for structural framing environments, helping protect the connector over the life of the installation.
• One "A" flange concealment option - allows one flange to be hidden from view, resulting in a cleaner finished appearance in exposed framing installations without sacrificing structural performance.
• Domestic manufacturing by Simpson - produced in the United States, supporting consistent quality standards and reliable availability for professional framing projects.

Why This Product

• A single connector replaces two separate approaches - the combined top-flange seating and face-nail capability means contractors get the stability of a top-mount hanger and the positive attachment of a face-mount hanger in one purpose-built piece of hardware.
• Purpose-built for a specific member size - the precise 5-1/8 x 16-1/2 in. seat means this hanger fits heavy timber and engineered lumber profiles exactly, reducing installation time and the risk of improper fit on the job site.
• Heavy-gauge performance where it counts - 12-gauge steel construction makes this hanger appropriate for the high-load demands of structural floor and roof framing systems that require proven, heavy-duty connectors.
• Cleaner results in visible framing - the available one "A" flange concealment option gives builders and designers a practical way to maintain a finished look in exposed beam applications without switching to a different product.
