The Simpson HUC212-3TF is a heavy-duty, hybrid joist hanger from the HUCTF series, purpose-built for triple 2x12 framing assemblies where a clean, recessed connection is required. It combines the strengths of both face-mount and top-mount hanger designs into a single solution, featuring two concealed top flanges that keep the connection flush and out of sight - ideal for end-of-wall or corner installations. Face-nailing capability allows the hanger to attach securely to the supported member, while the concealed flanges anchor to the header above, creating a strong and structurally sound connection. Built from 12-gauge steel with a G90 zinc galvanized finish, this hanger is tested, load rated, and code compliant for demanding structural applications.

Key Features

• Hybrid face-mount and top-mount design - combines the installation advantages of both hanger types into one product, reducing the need for compromise between connection style and structural performance
• Two concealed top flanges - keep the connection hidden and flush with the framing, making this hanger well suited for end-of-wall or corner installations where a clean profile matters
• Face-nailing attachment - allows the hanger to be securely fastened to the supported member, providing a reliable mechanical connection without relying solely on the top flanges
• Engineered for triple 2x12 nominal joist size - precisely sized for this specific triple-member configuration, ensuring proper fit, full bearing, and accurate load transfer without field modification
• 12-gauge steel construction - delivers the structural rigidity and load capacity expected in heavy-duty framing applications involving triple-member assemblies
• G90 zinc galvanized coating - provides corrosion resistance suited for demanding environments, helping the hanger maintain integrity over the life of the structure
• Slope capability up to 45 deg. - accommodates angled framing conditions without requiring a separate product, adding flexibility to installations involving pitched or sloped members
• Tested, load rated, and code compliant - the HUCTF series meets established performance standards, giving builders, inspectors, and engineers confidence in the connection

Why This Product

• A single hanger that solves two installation challenges - by merging face-mount and top-mount functionality, the HUCTF design eliminates the need to choose between a concealed profile and secure face-nailed attachment, making it practical for complex framing scenarios
• Built specifically for triple 2x12 structural framing - this is not a universal or adjustable hanger; it is engineered to the exact dimensions of a triple 2x12 member, which means proper bearing, accurate load distribution, and no guesswork on the job site
• Concealed flanges keep the framing connection visually clean - for end-of-wall, corner, or finish-sensitive applications where exposed hardware is undesirable, the recessed top-flange design keeps metal out of sight without sacrificing structural performance
• Code-compliant performance backed by testing - HUCTF-series hangers are tested and load rated, supporting permit approvals and third-party inspections in residential and commercial construction projects
