The Simpson MBHU 3-9/16 in. x 14 in. Stainless-Steel Masonry Beam Hanger from Simpson is a face-mounted connector engineered for attaching solid sawn lumber, engineered wood beams, and trusses directly to masonry or concrete walls. Built as a non-welded, one-piece stainless-steel hanger made from 10-gauge steel, it delivers structural reliability while resisting high/severe corrosion conditions. All required installation hardware - including Titen HD screw anchors and Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws - is included, so the hanger is ready to install right out of the box.

Key Features

• Face-mounted, one-piece non-welded design - eliminates the need for welding on site and simplifies positioning against masonry or concrete walls, saving installation time and reducing the chance of misalignment.
• Compatible with solid sawn lumber, engineered wood beams, and trusses - gives contractors and builders a single versatile hanger solution across a wide range of structural framing applications.
• Stainless-steel construction offering high/severe corrosion resistance - makes this hanger appropriate for demanding environments where standard carbon-steel connectors would be insufficient for long-term performance.
• 10-gauge steel thickness - provides the structural integrity needed to support heavy beam loads in masonry and concrete wall assemblies.
• Includes Titen HD screw anchors and Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws - since anchors are installed after the wall is built, locating them in the correct position is easier than with cast-in-place bolts, streamlining the entire installation process.
• Moisture barrier requirement clearly noted - a moisture barrier between the beam and wall must be provided per jurisdictional requirements, helping buyers plan installations that meet local building codes from the start.

Why This Product

• No extra hardware to source - the included Titen HD anchors and Strong-Drive SDS screws mean everything needed for a complete beam-to-masonry connection arrives together, reducing procurement steps and the risk of mismatched components.
• Post-wall anchor installation for greater accuracy - because the Titen HD screw anchors are set after the wall is already built, the installer can locate them precisely where needed, unlike cast-in-place bolts that must be positioned before the wall goes up.
• High/severe corrosion resistance for challenging job sites - the stainless-steel material choice makes this hanger well suited for applications where moisture exposure or corrosive conditions would compromise a standard steel connector over time.
• Broad beam compatibility from a single connector - whether the project calls for solid sawn lumber, engineered wood products, or trusses bearing on masonry or concrete, this one hanger covers all three applications without requiring a different product for each scenario.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of beams is the MBHU3.56/14SSKT compatible with?

The MBHU beam hanger is suitable for solid sawn and engineered wood beams as well as trusses, making it a versatile choice for a range of structural applications involving masonry or concrete walls.

Why is stainless steel used for this beam hanger?

Stainless steel offers high/severe corrosion resistance, making this hanger appropriate for environments where elevated corrosion protection is required. Note that the carbon-steel Titen HD anchors included are not recommended for exposed exterior applications.

Do I need to purchase additional hardware to install this beam hanger?

No. Installation hardware is included with the hanger - specifically, (2) 3/4-in. x 5-in. Titen HD anchors and (12) 1/4-in. x 2-1/2-in. Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws. Install with Titen HD screw anchors and Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws (included).

Is there an advantage to using the Titen HD anchor over cast-in-place bolts?

Yes. Since the Titen HD anchor is installed after the wall is built, locating the anchor in the right spot is easier than with cast-in-place bolts, which simplifies the overall installation process.
