Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie HGLTV7.37/18 is a 7-3/8 x 18 Heavy Duty Top-Flange Hanger engineered for structural composite lumber (SCL) header applications demanding exceptionally high load performance. Built with a dual-gauge steel construction - a robust 3-gauge steel top flange paired with a 7-gauge steel stirrup - this hanger delivers the structural integrity required in demanding engineered lumber installations. The thoughtfully designed hole placement actively works to prevent splitting of laminations, safeguarding the long-term integrity of the header. The innovative Funnel Flange design streamlines beam installation, reducing labor time and improving accuracy in the field. Finished in Simpson Strong-Tie gray paint for lasting durability, this hanger is also available hot-dip galvanized for environments requiring enhanced corrosion resistance.
Key Features
- Heavy-Duty Dual-Gauge Construction: 3-gauge steel top flange combined with a 7-gauge steel stirrup for maximum load-bearing capacity in SCL header applications
- Split-Prevention Hole Placement: Holes are specifically located to prevent degradation of the header due to splitting of laminations, preserving structural integrity over time
- Funnel Flange Design: Engineered for easy beam installation, allowing installers to seat beams quickly and accurately without compromising alignment
- High-Load Performance: Designed specifically for structural composite lumber (SCL) header applications that require high loads
- Durable Factory Finish: Simpson Strong-Tie gray paint provides reliable protection under standard conditions
- Hot-Dip Galvanized Option Available: For applications requiring additional corrosion resistance, a hot-dip galvanized version can be ordered
- Made in the United States: Manufactured domestically to consistent quality standards
