Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie BA4.12/14 is a top-flange joist hanger engineered for use with double 2 in. x 14 in. engineered wood and solid sawn lumber members. Part of Simpson's cost-effective BA series, this 12-gauge galvanized hanger is designed to carry medium loads with solid sawn lumber and higher loads with engineered wood products. Its full-height joist flange and two-level top-flange embossment work together to deliver superior stiffness, rotational control, and installation versatility - making it a reliable choice for demanding structural framing applications.
Key Features
- Two-Level Top-Flange Embossment: Provides increased stiffness at the top flange for improved structural performance under load.
- Full-Height Joist Flange: Captures the top chord of the joist to prevent rotation and eliminate the need for web stiffeners, simplifying installation.
- Min./Max. Nailing Options: Minimum nailing targets moderate load demands, whereas maximum nailing allows higher loads - offering design versatility for a range of project requirements.
- 12-Gauge Steel Construction: Heavy-duty gauge steel ensures long-term strength and durability in structural applications.
- G90 Zinc Galvanized Finish: Provides extra corrosion resistance, extending the service life of the hanger in exposed or moisture-prone environments.
- Accommodates Sloped and/or Skewed Members: Available for special configurations to suit complex framing geometries.
- Made in the United States: Domestically manufactured to consistent quality standards.
