The Simpson HSUR4.12/14 Heavy Skewed U-Shaped Joist Hanger is a right-hand 45 deg. angled connector built for wood construction framing applications that demand a precise, angled joist connection. Engineered by Simpson to support large joist members and double I-joists, this heavy-gauge hanger features an encapsulating U-shaped design that wraps around the top flange of the joist, delivering a secure, stable seat without the need for web stiffeners during standard installation. Its G90 zinc galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suited to demanding structural environments.

Key Features

• 45 deg. right-hand skew orientation - designed specifically for angled framing connections, making it the correct fit when a right-skewed hanger is required rather than a straight or left-skewed alternative.
• Heavy U-shaped encapsulating design - wraps around the top flange of the joist so web stiffeners are not required during standard installation, simplifying the framing process and reducing labor time.
• Supports large joist members and double I-joists - approved for heavy wood construction framing applications where undersized hangers would not meet structural demands.
• 14-gauge steel construction - provides the rigidity and load-bearing capacity expected in heavy structural connectors used in demanding framing conditions.
• G90 zinc galvanized coating - offers a durable protective finish that guards against corrosion in typical wood framing environments.
• End-of-wall configuration available - an option with the acute flange turned in accommodates end-of-wall installation for solid sawn sizes, expanding the range of framing situations this hanger can address.

Why This Product

• Purpose-built for right-hand angled connections - the 45 deg. skewed right geometry eliminates improvised workarounds and ensures a proper, code-consistent connection where angled framing meets a header or beam.
• Eliminates web stiffener requirements - the encapsulating U-shaped seat handles the load path without extra reinforcement components, reducing both material cost and installation complexity on the job site.
• Handles heavy joist loads - approved for large joist members and double I-joists, this hanger is suited to substantial structural loads that lighter hangers are not rated to carry.
• Made by Simpson, a trusted connector brand - the HSUR4.12/14 carries the engineering and quality control that structural framing professionals rely on when specifying connectors for critical load-bearing applications.
