The Simpson ITS2.37/14 Top-Flange I-Joist Hanger from Simpson Strong-Tie is an engineered wood hanger built to deliver fast, reliable 90 deg. connections between I-joists and headers. Designed specifically for 2-5/16 in. x 14 in. engineered lumber, it combines the Strong-Grip seat and Funnel Flange design to simplify installation, eliminate the need for joist nails in standard applications, and reduce overall installed cost compared to conventional top-flange hanger methods.

Key Features

• Strong-Grip seat accommodates flange thicknesses from 1 1/8 in. to 1 1/2 in. - securely holds a wide range of I-joist flange sizes without extra hardware, giving installers flexibility across common engineered wood products
• No joist nailing required for standard I-joist installation without web stiffeners - eliminates a time-consuming step, speeding up the installation process and lowering labor costs on the job site
• Funnel Flange design guides the joist into position - makes seating the joist straightforward and precise, reducing errors and rework during framing
• Made from 18-gauge steel - provides a sturdy, load-bearing connection that holds up to the structural demands of residential and light commercial framing
• Zinc Galvanized, G90 finish - delivers enhanced corrosion resistance, making this hanger suitable for applications where moisture exposure is a concern
• Installs with 0.148 in. x 3 in. nails (sold separately) - uses a straightforward, widely available fastener so crews can get to work without sourcing specialty hardware

Why This Product

• Faster installation, lower installed cost - the combination of the Strong-Grip seat and Funnel Flange design means no joist nailing is needed for standard I-joist installation, cutting steps from the framing process and reducing time spent per connection
• Purpose-built for engineered wood - sized precisely for 2-5/16 in. x 14 in. I-joists and compatible with flange thicknesses from 1 1/8 in. to 1 1/2 in., this hanger fits the engineered lumber dimensions framers actually work with rather than requiring field modification
• Built-in corrosion protection - the G90 zinc galvanized coating provides a level of durability that helps the hanger maintain its integrity in moisture-prone environments, protecting the connection over the life of the structure
• Trusted Simpson Strong-Tie engineering - this hanger is part of Simpson's established line of top-flange EWP hangers, designed to meet the structural connection needs of modern engineered lumber framing
