The Simpson HUCQ410Z-SDSG Heavy Face-Mount Concealed-Flange Joist Hanger is built for structures where additional strength and safety factors are non-negotiable. Engineered by Simpson for 4x10 lumber, this heavy-duty face-mount hanger features concealed header flanges that keep connections clean and unobtrusive in exposed framing conditions, while its design allows placement close to the end of the supporting beam for greater installation flexibility. The included Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws deliver high load capacity without any predrilling, so professional framers and contractors can work faster without sacrificing structural integrity. Whether connecting wood joists to wood beams, masonry, or concrete, and whether the application is interior or exterior involving treated lumber, this hanger is built to perform.

Key Features

• Concealed header flanges - provide cleaner lines in exposed framing conditions, eliminating the need for cosmetic cover-ups on visible structural connections
• Can be installed close to the end of the supporting beam - gives you more placement options in tight or complex framing layouts where positioning flexibility matters
• Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws included - no predrilling required means faster installation without compromising the high-capacity connection the job demands
• Installs wood joists to wood, masonry, and concrete - versatile enough to handle a wide range of structural substrates, reducing the need to source different hardware for different conditions
• 14-gauge steel construction - heavy-duty material thickness delivers the load capacity needed for demanding structural applications
• ZMAX galvanization - provides extra corrosion resistance beyond standard coatings, making this hanger a reliable choice for exterior environments and pressure-treated wood applications
• Tested, load rated, and code compliant - the HUCQ series meets recognized standards, giving contractors and inspectors confidence that every connection satisfies structural and building code requirements

Why This Product

• Heavy-duty performance where it counts - designed specifically for structures requiring additional strength and safety factors, this hanger is not a general-purpose connector but a purpose-built solution for demanding load conditions
• Screws included, no predrilling needed - the 18 Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws included in the package work without predrilling, cutting labor time while still delivering high-capacity fastening right out of the box
• ZMAX coating for long-term durability - the enhanced galvanization protects against corrosion in exterior and treated-wood applications where a standard galvanized finish would fall short, helping connections maintain their integrity over time
• Clean, concealed-flange design for exposed framing - the hidden header flanges allow this heavy-duty joist hanger to blend into visible structural framing without sacrificing any of the load-rated performance the HUCQ series is built to deliver

Frequently Asked Questions

What size joist is this hanger designed for?

This hanger is designed for a nominal joist size of 4x10, with a seat width of 3-9/16 in.

Do I need to predrill before installing the SDS screws?

No predrilling is required. The included Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws are designed for high-capacity installation without predrilling, simplifying the installation process.

Why is ZMAX galvanization important for this hanger?

ZMAX galvanization offers extra corrosion resistance, making this hanger suitable for exterior conditions and applications involving treated wood where standard galvanization may not provide adequate protection.

Can this hanger be installed against masonry or concrete, not just wood?

Yes. The HUCQ410Z-SDSG is designed to install wood joists to wood, masonry, and concrete supporting members, providing versatility across multiple construction scenarios.
