Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie BA212-2 is a top-flange joist hanger engineered for both solid sawn lumber and engineered wood product applications. Designed as part of the trusted Simpson Strong-Tie BA series, this hanger accommodates a double 2x12 nominal joist size and delivers impressive versatility - carrying medium loads with solid sawn lumber and higher loads with engineered wood products. The BA212-2 supports minimum nailing with positive-angle nailing (PAN) for moderate load conditions, while maximum nailing unlocks its full higher-load capacity. Its cost-effective one-piece construction, 12-gauge steel build, and G90 zinc galvanized finish make it a dependable choice for demanding structural connections.
