The Simpson HUC614TF HUCTF Top-Flange Concealed-Flange Joist Hanger is a heavy-duty hybrid connector engineered for nominal 6x14 lumber, merging the strengths of both face-mount and top-mount hanger designs into a single solution. Two concealed flanges deliver a clean profile suited for end-of-wall or corner installations where a traditional face-mount hanger is not practical, while integrated face-nailing keeps the hanger securely anchored to the supporting member. Built from 12-gauge steel with a G90 zinc galvanized finish, this joist hanger is designed to hold up in demanding framing applications with tested, load-rated, and code-compliant performance.

Key Features

• Hybrid face-mount and top-mount design - combines the installation flexibility of a face-mount hanger with the bearing advantages of a top-flange hanger, giving framers a versatile single connector for complex connection points
• Two concealed flanges - tuck out of sight at end-of-wall and corner positions, producing a cleaner structural appearance without sacrificing load-carrying capability
• Face-nailing attachment method - allows the hanger to be securely fastened directly to the supporting member for a reliable, stable connection
• 12-gauge steel construction - provides the heavy-duty strength required for large nominal 6x14 joist and beam members in demanding framing applications
• G90 zinc galvanized coating - offers a corrosion-resistant finish that helps extend the service life of the connector in exposed or moisture-prone framing environments
• Slopes up to 45 deg. - accommodates angled framing layouts without requiring a separate hanger model, simplifying material selection on sloped-roof or sloped-floor assemblies
• Tested, load-rated, and code-compliant - the HUCTF series meets recognized performance standards, supporting smooth inspections and confident specification by builders and engineers
• Rough beam sizes available by special order - provides sizing flexibility beyond the standard nominal 6x14 dimension when project conditions require it

Why This Product

• One hanger, two hanger technologies - the hybrid face-mount and top-mount construction means this single connector handles connection scenarios that would otherwise require choosing between two different hanger types, reducing complexity on the job site
• Purpose-built for end-of-wall and corner framing - the concealed-flange profile is specifically engineered for the tight, geometry-constrained locations where standard open-flange hangers cannot be used, making it a direct solution rather than a workaround
• Code-compliant out of the box - as a tested and load-rated HUCTF-series connector, it supports straightforward plan approval and inspection sign-off without additional engineering justification for standard applications
• Corrosion-resistant finish for long-term reliability - the G90 zinc galvanized coating helps the connector maintain its structural integrity over time in framing environments where moisture exposure is a concern
