Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie BA5.12/24 BA Series Top-Flange Joist Hanger is a cost-effective, high-performance connector engineered for use with double 2-1/2 in. x 24 in. engineered wood and solid sawn lumber applications. Designed to carry medium loads with solid sawn lumber and higher loads with engineered wood products, this top-flange hanger offers genuine design versatility through its minimum and maximum nailing options. Constructed from 12-gauge steel with a G90 zinc galvanized finish for enhanced corrosion resistance, the BA5.12/24 delivers reliable structural performance for demanding residential and commercial framing projects. The full-height joist flange and two-level embossed top flange work together to prevent joist rotation and eliminate the need for web stiffeners, simplifying installation without sacrificing load capacity.
Key Features
- The two-level embossment at the top flange provides increased stiffness
- The full-height joist flange captures the top chord of the joist to prevent rotation and eliminate the need for web stiffeners
- Minimum nailing targets moderate load demands, whereas maximum nailing allows higher loads
- Available for special order to accommodate sloped and/or skewed members
- Actual joist size: Double 2-1/2 in. x 24 in.
- Made from 12-gauge steel
- Galvanized (G90) for extra corrosion resistance

Frequently Asked Questions
- What size member is the BA5.12/24 designed to support?
- The BA5.12/24 is specifically designed for a double 2-1/2 in. x 24 in. engineered wood or solid sawn lumber member. It is a top-flange joist hanger sized to fit that exact joist dimension.
- What nails should be used to install this hanger?
- Install the BA5.12/24 with 0.162 in. x 3-1/2 in. nails in the header and 0.148 in. x 1-1/2 in. nails in the joist. The hanger offers minimum and maximum nailing options, allowing you to target moderate load demands with minimum nailing or achieve higher load capacities with maximum nailing.
- Does this hanger require web stiffeners during installation?
- No. The full-height joist flange captures the top chord of the joist to prevent rotation, which eliminates the need for web stiffeners. This simplifies installation without sacrificing structural performance.
- Can the BA5.12/24 be used for sloped or skewed framing applications?
- The standard BA5.12/24 is designed for conventional framing, but it is available for special order to accommodate sloped and/or skewed members. Contact Simpson Strong-Tie or your supplier to inquire about special-order configurations for angled applications.
