The Simpson HUC414TF is a heavy-duty, 12-gauge galvanized joist hanger built for nominal 4x14 lumber connections in structurally demanding applications. Part of the Simpson HUCTF series, this hybrid hanger merges the advantages of both face-mount and top-mount designs into a single solution, featuring two concealed flanges that keep the hanger hidden from view while delivering the strength of a top-flange connection. Face-nailing allows the hanger to be securely attached to the member, making it a reliable choice for end-of-wall or corner framing situations where conventional hangers fall short.

Key Features

• Hybrid face-mount and top-mount design - combines the load-carrying strength of a top-flange hanger with the straightforward installation of a face-mount, giving builders the best of both connection methods in one product
• Two concealed flanges - keep the hanger out of sight after installation, supporting a cleaner finish while enabling secure end-of-wall or corner connections that standard hangers cannot easily achieve
• Face-nailing configuration - allows the hanger to be securely attached directly to the structural member, providing a firm, reliable connection without requiring specialized fastening tools
• Slop capacity up to 45 deg. - accommodates angled framing conditions so contractors can use a single hanger model across a range of sloped installations without sourcing additional hardware
• 12-gauge steel construction - delivers the heavy-duty strength needed for large 4x14 framing members in load-bearing applications
• Zinc galvanized G90 coating - provides corrosion resistance to extend the service life of the connection in environments where moisture exposure is a concern
• Tested, load rated, and code compliant - meets structural and building code requirements, giving engineers, inspectors, and contractors confidence in the connection's performance
• Rough beam sizes available by special order - expands the range of compatible lumber dimensions beyond standard sizing for projects with non-standard framing members

Why This Product

• One hanger, two connection methods - the hybrid design combines face-mount convenience with top-flange support, eliminating the need to source separate hangers for different framing scenarios and reducing complexity on the job site
• Built and tested for structural confidence - HUCTF-series hangers are tested, load rated, and code compliant, so this hanger is not just a fit but a verified, engineering-backed solution for load-bearing 4x14 connections
• Concealed flanges for corner and end-of-wall framing - the two hidden top flanges make this hanger particularly well-suited to installation situations where a conventional face-mount hanger cannot provide adequate support, addressing connection challenges that other hangers leave unsolved
• Corrosion-resistant finish for long-term durability - the G90 zinc galvanized coating protects the steel against moisture and corrosion, helping the connection maintain its structural integrity over the life of the building

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the HUC414TF a hybrid hanger?

The HUC414TF is considered a hybrid hanger because it incorporates the advantages of both face-mount and top-mount hangers. Its two concealed flanges provide top-flange support while its face-nailing design allows it to be securely attached directly to the structural member.

What lumber size is the HUC414TF designed for?

The HUC414TF is designed for a nominal 4x14 joist or beam member. It measures 3 9/16 in. wide and 13 in. tall to accommodate that lumber size.

Can the HUC414TF be installed at an angle?

Yes. The HUC414TF can be sloped a maximum of 45 deg.. However, no skew options are available for this hanger.

Is the HUC414TF code compliant and load rated?

Yes. HUCTF-series hangers, including the HUC414TF, are tested, load rated, and code compliant, making them suitable for use in structurally critical applications.
