The Simpson SUR2.06/9 SUR Galvanized Joist Hanger for 2 in. x 9-1/2 in. Engineered Wood, Skewed Right is a 45 deg.-skewed U-shaped hanger from Simpson Strong-Tie engineered to support solid sawn and engineered wood products in wood construction. Its U-shaped design encapsulates the top flange of the joist, eliminating the need for web stiffeners during standard installation and delivering a strong, reliable connection beneath the joist, rafter, or beam. Built to handle angled framing where a precise right-skewed connection is required, this hanger is well-suited for residential and commercial wood framing applications involving skewed joist-to-header or beam connections.

Key Features

• Skewed 45 deg. to the right (SUR) - purpose-built for right-skewed framing angles, eliminating the guesswork of field-bending or improvising angled connections.
• Accommodates 40 deg. to 50 deg. skew range without modification - provides built-in installation flexibility so minor framing variances do not require a different hanger or field alteration.
• Obround nail holes on the acute side - allow nails to be driven parallel to the joist in the tightest part of the angle, making fastening easier and faster in confined framing conditions.
• Positive-angle nailing for engineered wood sizes - drives fasteners at the correct angle to prevent splitting of engineered lumber, protecting the structural member and speeding up installation.
• U-shaped design encapsulates the top flange of the joist - no web stiffeners are required for standard installation, reducing material costs and simplifying the connection.
• Made from 16-gauge steel - delivers the structural rigidity needed for load-bearing joist, rafter, and beam connections in wood framing.
• G90 zinc galvanized finish - provides corrosion resistance suitable for use in treated lumber and moisture-exposed framing environments.
• Compatible with two fastener options - install with (14) 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 (16) #9 x 1 1/2 in. Strong-Drive SD Connector screws (SD9112), giving installers flexibility based on available tools and job site conditions.

Why This Product

• Engineered specifically for skewed framing - unlike adjustable or field-bent alternatives, the SUR2.06/9 is factory-formed at a precise 45 deg. right skew, ensuring a consistent, code-ready angled connection every time without compromising structural integrity.
• No web stiffeners required - the U-shaped top-flange design eliminates the extra hardware and labor typically associated with engineered wood installations, saving time on the job site.
• Supports both solid sawn and engineered wood - a single hanger handles the full range of modern framing lumber types, making it a practical choice for mixed-material projects and engineered lumber systems like LVL or I-joists at a 2 in. x 9-1/2 in. member size.
• Made in the United States by a trusted structural connector brand - Simpson Strong-Tie manufactures this hanger domestically to consistent quality standards, giving contractors confidence in the product's performance for load-bearing wood framing connections.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the SUR and SUL hangers?

The SUR and SUL hangers are identical in design except for the direction of their skew. The SUR is skewed 45 deg. to the right, while the SUL is skewed 45 deg. to the left. Choose the model that matches the direction of your framing angle.

Can the SUR2.06/9 be field-modified to adjust the skew angle?

No. These hangers cannot be modified in the field. However, the SUR2.06/9 is designed to accommodate a joist skewed anywhere between 40 deg. and 50 deg., providing some flexibility without requiring alteration.

What fasteners are required to install the SUR2.06/9?

Install with (14) 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 (16) #9 x 1-1/2 in. Strong-Drive SD Connector screws (SD9112).

Are web stiffeners required when using the SUR2.06/9?

No. Because the U-shaped design encapsulates the top flange of the joist, no web stiffeners are required for standard installation, simplifying the installation process.
