Product Description
The Simpson 2 x 10 Top Flange Joist Hanger is a top-flange hanger from Simpson engineered for solid sawn lumber applications where reliable light-to-medium load support and uplift resistance are required. Built from 18-gauge steel with a G90 zinc galvanized finish, this cost-effective hanger delivers lasting performance in standard framing projects while also meeting the structural demands of high-wind and seismic loading conditions. Optional triangular nail holes allow maximum nailing to increase allowable loads, giving builders added flexibility on the job site.
Key Features
- Unique two-level embossment provides added stiffness to the top flange - reinforces the hanger's structure so it maintains shape and load capacity under real-world framing conditions.
- Nail locations that enable effective use with nailers - speeds up installation with pneumatic tools, reducing labor time without sacrificing fastener accuracy.
- Additional load rating for a 2x or 3x nailer - gives builders the option to increase allowable loads when framing with nailers, making this hanger adaptable to a wider range of structural requirements.
- Engineered with increased uplift loads for earthquake or high-wind loading - provides the added structural reliability needed in demanding environments where code requirements for lateral and uplift forces apply.
- G90 zinc galvanized coating - delivers extra corrosion resistance, making this top-flange hanger well suited for framing applications where moisture exposure is a concern.
- 18-gauge steel construction - strikes a practical balance between strength and material efficiency for light-to-medium load joist connections in solid sawn lumber framing.
- Seat width sized for 2x10 lumber - ensures a proper, snug fit for standard 2x10 joists, reducing on-site adjustment and supporting accurate, code-compliant framing.
Why This Product
- Cost-effective performance across common framing applications - designed to support light-to-medium loads without overbuilding, so contractors and builders get reliable structural capacity at a practical price point for standard joist hanger needs.
- Ready for high-demand conditions - the increased uplift load rating makes this hanger a capable choice in regions subject to earthquake or high-wind loading, providing structural confidence where it matters most.
- Installer-friendly design - nail locations compatible with nailers and optional triangular nail holes for maximum nailing mean faster, more efficient installations without compromising allowable load performance.
- Built-in durability with G90 galvanized protection - the zinc galvanized finish adds a meaningful layer of corrosion resistance, extending the service life of the connection in moisture-prone framing environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What size joist is the JB210A designed to support?
- The JB210A is designed for a nominal 2x10 joist size with a seat width of 1-9/16 in., making it the correct choice for standard 2x10 solid sawn lumber framing applications.
- How is the JB210A installed?
- Install with (6) 0.162 in. x 3-1/2 in. nails in the header and (2) 0.148 in. x 1-1/2 in. nails in the joist. Note that ledgers must be evaluated for each application separately, and you should check the top-flange dimension, nail length, and nail location on the ledger.
- Is the JB210A suitable for high-wind or seismic conditions?
- Yes. The JB210A is engineered with increased uplift loads specifically to meet the demands of earthquake or high-wind loading conditions, providing added structural reliability in demanding environments.
- What corrosion protection does the JB210A offer?
- The JB210A features a G90 zinc galvanized coating, which provides extra corrosion resistance and makes it well suited for use in environments where moisture exposure is a concern.
