Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie MBHU3.56/18SSKT is a stainless-steel, face-mounted masonry beam hanger designed to connect beams securely to masonry or concrete walls. As a non-welded, one-piece connector, the MBHU accommodates solid sawn lumber, engineered wood beams, and trusses - making it a versatile choice for a wide range of structural applications. Installation hardware is included right in the kit: Titen HD screw anchors and Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws ship with every hanger, eliminating the need for separate fastener sourcing. Because the Titen HD anchor is installed after the wall is built, precise anchor placement is far simpler compared to traditional cast-in-place bolt methods. Constructed from 10-gauge stainless steel, this hanger delivers high to severe corrosion resistance for demanding environments.
Key Features
- Face-Mounted Design: Provides a straightforward connection between beams and masonry or concrete walls without cast-in-place hardware.
- Non-Welded, One-Piece Construction: A single formed connector eliminates weld points for consistent structural integrity throughout.
- Hardware Included: Ships with Titen HD screw anchors and Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws for a complete, ready-to-install package.
- Post-Wall Anchor Installation: Titen HD anchors are installed after wall construction, allowing precise placement that is easier than cast-in-place bolt methods.
- High/Severe Corrosion Resistance: Stainless steel construction offers superior protection against corrosion in demanding conditions.
- 10-Gauge Steel: Heavy-gauge material delivers the strength required for beam-to-masonry connections.
- Broad Compatibility: Suitable for solid sawn lumber, engineered wood beams, and trusses.
- Moisture Barrier Required: Provide a moisture barrier between beam and wall per jurisdictional requirements.
- Note: Carbon-steel Titen HD is not recommended for exposed exterior applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What fasteners are included with this masonry beam hanger?
- This kit includes (2) 3/4-in. x 5-in. Titen HD screw anchors and (12) 1/4-in. x 2-1/2-in. Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws, providing everything needed for a complete installation without sourcing fasteners separately.
- What types of beams is the MBHU3.56/18SSKT compatible with?
- This hanger is suitable for solid sawn lumber, engineered wood beams, and trusses, making it a versatile option for a wide range of structural framing applications.
- Why is this hanger easier to install than traditional cast-in-place bolt methods?
- Because the Titen HD screw anchor is installed after the wall is already built, you can locate and place the anchor precisely where needed. This eliminates the guesswork and coordination required when positioning cast-in-place bolts during wall construction.
- Is this hanger suitable for exposed exterior or high-moisture environments?
- The hanger itself is made from 10-gauge stainless steel, which provides high to severe corrosion resistance and is appropriate for demanding environments. However, note that carbon-steel Titen HD anchors are not recommended for exposed exterior applications, and a moisture barrier between the beam and wall should be provided per jurisdictional requirements.
