The Simpson SUR Galvanized Joist Hanger for 2 in. x 14 in. Engineered Wood, Skewed Right is a 45 deg.-skewed, U-shaped hanger built by Simpson to deliver a strong, code-ready connection where joists meet a header or beam at a right-hand skew angle. Designed to support both solid sawn and engineered wood products, this hanger encapsulates the top flange of the joist so no web stiffeners are required for standard installation - simplifying the build process without sacrificing structural integrity. The 16-gauge steel construction and G90 zinc galvanized finish make it well suited for demanding wood framing applications where durability and corrosion resistance matter.

Key Features

• Skewed 45 deg. to the right - purpose-built for right-hand skewed joist layouts, eliminating the guesswork of field-bending or modifying a standard hanger
• Accommodates a 40 deg. to 50 deg. skew range without modification - provides installation flexibility across a 10 deg. window so minor framing variations do not require a different hanger
• Obround nail holes on the acute side - allow nails to be driven parallel to the joist, making fastening straightforward even in the tight geometry of a skewed connection
• Positive-angle nailing for engineered wood sizes - reduces the risk of wood splitting during installation and speeds up the nailing sequence on the jobsite
• U-shaped design encapsulates the top flange of the joist - web stiffeners are not required for standard installation, cutting material and labor costs
• Made from 16-gauge steel with a G90 zinc galvanized finish - delivers solid load-carrying capacity and corrosion resistance for long-term performance in wood framing environments
• Compatible with two fastener options - can be installed with nails or Strong-Drive SD Connector screws, giving contractors flexibility based on available tools and jobsite preference

Why This Product

• Engineered specifically for skewed framing - not a field compromise - the fixed 45 deg. right-skew geometry and obround acute-side nail holes are designed from the ground up for skewed joist connections, producing a cleaner, stronger result than adapting a standard hanger on site
• No web stiffeners needed for standard installation - the encapsulating U-shape handles the load path without additional blocking hardware, keeping the installation simple and the material list short
• Works with solid sawn and engineered wood products - a single hanger handles a broad range of lumber types common in modern wood construction, including LVL and other engineered members where splitting risk makes positive-angle nailing especially valuable
• G90 galvanized coating supports long-term durability - the zinc galvanized finish resists corrosion in the conditions typical of wood framing projects, helping the connection maintain its integrity over the life of the structure

Frequently Asked Questions

What does "SUR" mean, and how does it differ from the SUL?

SUR stands for skewed right. The SUR and SUL hangers are identical in construction except that the SUR is skewed 45 deg. to the right and the SUL is skewed 45 deg. to the left. Select the version that matches the direction of your joist's skew.

Can the SUR2.06/14 be field-modified to adjust the skew angle?

No. These hangers cannot be modified in the field. However, they are designed to accommodate a joist skewed anywhere between 40 deg. and 50 deg., providing a degree of flexibility within that range without alteration.

Are web stiffeners required when installing this hanger?

No. The U-shaped design of the SUR2.06/14 encapsulates the top flange of the joist, which means web stiffeners are not required for standard installation.

What fasteners are required to install the SUR2.06/14?

Install with (18) 0.162 x 3-1/2 in. nails in the face and (2) 0.148 x 1-1/2 in. nails in the joist, OR (20) #9 x 1-1/2 in. Strong-Drive SD Connector screws (SD9112).
