The Simpson HSUR46 Galvanized Joist Hanger for 4x6, Skewed Right is a purpose-built framing connector from Simpson Strong-Tie designed to create a reliable 45 deg. angled connection between a 4x6 joist and a header in situations where a straight hanger simply will not work. Formed from 14-gauge steel and finished with a G90 zinc galvanized coating for enhanced corrosion resistance, this skewed-right hanger accommodates joists angled from 40 to 50 degrees, giving framers the flexibility to handle off-angle framing conditions with confidence. Angled nail slots guide fasteners into position automatically, and the hanger accepts either a square-cut or bevel-cut joist end, making it a practical choice for a wide range of structural framing applications.

Key Features

• Skewed-right (HSUR) orientation - provides a precise 45 deg. connection between a joist and header, solving angled framing situations that a standard straight hanger cannot address.
• Accommodates joists skewed 40 to 50 degrees - allows a reasonable range of field variation around the 45 deg. target, reducing the need for exact angle precision during framing.
• Angled nail slots direct nails for proper installation - guides fasteners into the correct position automatically, helping ensure a code-compliant connection without guesswork.
• Square cut or bevel cut joist end accepted - eliminates the requirement for a specific end-cut angle, saving time and reducing waste during framing.
• 14-gauge steel construction - delivers the structural strength needed to support 4x6 nominal joist members in demanding load-bearing applications.
• G90 zinc galvanized coating - provides extra corrosion resistance, making this hanger suitable for use in moisture-prone or treated-lumber framing environments.

Why This Product

• Engineered for a specific framing challenge - when a joist must meet a header at a 45 deg. angle, this hanger provides a factory-designed solution with built-in nail guidance and a defined skew range, rather than requiring field fabrication or workarounds.
• Flexible installation without sacrificing reliability - accepting joists skewed anywhere from 40 to 50 degrees and allowing either a square or bevel end cut means less time fitting and adjusting on site, with a strong connection as the result.
• Corrosion-resistant finish for long-term performance - the G90 zinc galvanized coating goes beyond basic protection, helping the hanger hold up in conditions where moisture exposure or pressure-treated lumber could compromise lesser finishes over time.
• Trusted Simpson Strong-Tie engineering - part of a broad line of specialty hangers developed to handle demanding framing applications, this connector pairs with 16d common nails and angled nail slots designed to make correct installation straightforward from the start.

Frequently Asked Questions

What angle does the HSUR46 provide for the joist-to-header connection?

The HSUR46 is designed to provide a 45 deg. connection between a joist and a header. It can accommodate joists skewed anywhere from 40 to 50 degrees.

What does "HSUR" mean, and how is it different from "HSUL"?

HSUR indicates the hanger is skewed to the right. The HSUL version is identical in design but is skewed 45 degrees to the left instead. Choose the correct orientation based on your framing layout.

Does the joist end need to be cut at a specific angle for installation?

No. The joist end may be either square cut or bevel cut, offering flexibility during installation without compromising the connection.

What fasteners are recommended for installing the HSUR46?

The HSUR46 should be installed with 16d common nails. The angled nail slots built into the hanger help direct nails correctly for a proper, code-compliant installation.
