Product Description
The Simpson HGLTV3.512 Heavy Top-Flange Hanger is an engineered-lumber hanger built to handle high-load structural composite lumber (SCL) header applications. Designed with a Funnel Flange for quick, accurate beam placement and strategically positioned holes that protect header integrity by preventing lamination splitting, this heavy-duty connector delivers reliable performance where demanding structural loads are present. Manufactured in the United States to Simpson Strong-Tie's exacting standards, the HGLTV3.512 combines a robust dual-gauge steel construction with a durable factory finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What type of lumber is the HGLTV3.512 designed to work with?
- The HGLTV3.512 is engineered specifically for structural composite lumber (SCL) header applications. It is a heavy top-flange hanger built to handle the high-load demands associated with SCL headers rather than standard dimensional lumber connections.
- How does the Funnel Flange design benefit installation?
- The Funnel Flange design facilitates easy, accurate placement of beams during installation. It helps guide the beam into the correct position, reducing labor time and minimizing alignment difficulty on the job site.
- What materials and finish are used in the construction of this hanger?
- The HGLTV3.512 features a dual-gauge steel construction, with a 3-gauge steel top flange and a 7-gauge steel stirrup. It comes with a factory-applied Simpson Strong-Tie gray paint finish suitable for standard interior applications. A hot-dip galvanized finish option is also available for projects requiring enhanced corrosion resistance.
- How does the HGLTV3.512 protect the integrity of the header during installation?
- The hanger's nail and fastener hole locations are precisely positioned to prevent lamination splitting, which can degrade the structural integrity of SCL headers. This intentional hole placement helps maintain the full strength of the header after fastening.
