Product Description
The Simpson HUC5.31/11 Concealed-Flange Heavy Face-Mount Hanger is an engineered structural connector built for applications that demand exceptional strength and elevated safety factors. Designed as a face-mount joist hanger, the HUC series features concealed header flanges that deliver cleaner, more refined visible lines - making this hanger an ideal choice for exposed framing conditions where aesthetics matter as much as performance. Manufactured in the United States from heavy-gauge galvanized steel, the HUC5.31/11 delivers reliable load transfer and long-term durability in demanding structural environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does "concealed-flange" mean, and why does it matter?
- The concealed-flange design means the header flanges are hidden once the hanger is installed, resulting in clean, unobtrusive visible lines. This makes the HUC5.31/11 especially well-suited for exposed framing conditions where the structural members remain visible and aesthetics are a consideration alongside performance.
- What gauge steel is the HUC5.31/11 made from?
- The HUC5.31/11 is fabricated from 14-gauge (68 mil) steel, which qualifies it as heavy-duty construction designed to deliver superior strength and load-bearing capacity in demanding structural applications.
- How is the HUC5.31/11 installed?
- This hanger uses a face-mount design, meaning it mounts directly to the face of the header or beam. This approach is intended to provide straightforward installation while ensuring reliable load transfer between the supported joist and the header or beam.
- What finish does the HUC5.31/11 have, and does it offer corrosion protection?
- The HUC5.31/11 features a factory-applied galvanized finish. This galvanized coating is intended to help resist corrosion, contributing to extended service life in demanding structural environments.
