The Simpson Strong-Tie HSURC210-2Z Double 2x10 Concealed Flange Joist Hanger Skewed Right is a heavy-duty, 45 deg.-skewed structural connector engineered for dependable joist support in wood construction applications. Built from 14-gauge steel with a ZMAX protective coating, this U-shaped hanger is designed to support double 2x10 members at a precise 45 deg. right-hand skew - making it an ideal solution where angled framing meets structural performance. The concealed header flanges deliver clean, professional lines in exposed conditions, while the innovative design eliminates the need for web stiffeners in standard installations. Made in the United States, the HSURC210-2Z reflects the engineering precision and corrosion-resistant quality that structural professionals rely on.

Key Features

• 45 deg. Right-Hand Skew: Specifically engineered to support joist members skewed 45 deg. to the right, with tolerance for 40 deg. - 50 deg.-skewed joists
• Concealed Header Flanges: Provides cleaner visible lines ideal for exposed framing conditions
• A2 (Acute) Flange Turned In: Designed to accommodate end-of-wall installation with ease
• No Web Stiffeners Required: Encapsulates the top flange of the joist, eliminating the need for web stiffeners in standard installations
• Obround Nail Holes on Acute Side: Allows nails to be easily installed parallel to the joist for faster, more accurate installation
• ZMAX Coating: Heavy-duty galvanized coating for enhanced corrosion resistance in treated lumber and demanding environments
• 14-Gauge Steel Construction: Provides substantial load-bearing strength appropriate for double 2x10 joist members
• Square or Bevel Cut Joist End Compatible: The joist end may be square cut or bevel cut for installation flexibility
• Cannot Be Modified: Maintains structural integrity - these hangers cannot be field-modified

• Applications involving joists with a skew angle ranging from 40 deg. to 50 deg.
• Environments requiring enhanced corrosion resistance, including use with treated lumber

Installation

Proper installation of the HSURC210-2Z requires the following fasteners:

• #9 x 2-1/2" Strong-Drive SD Connector Screws OR
• 0.162" x 3-1/2" Nails and 0.162" x 2-1/2" Nails

Fill all round and obround nail holes with the specified fasteners to achieve table loads. Where noted, triangle holes in the joist flange may be filled for additional uplift capacity. The joist end may be square cut or bevel cut. This hanger cannot be modified but will accommodate a 40 deg.- to 50 deg.-skewed joist.

Frequently Asked Questions

What joist size and skew angle is the HSURC210-2Z designed for?

This hanger is specifically designed to support double 2x10 joist members at a 45 deg. right-hand skew. It can also accommodate joists skewed between 40 deg. and 50 deg., providing some tolerance for field conditions where the angle is close but not exactly 45 deg..

Do I need web stiffeners when installing this joist hanger?

No. The HSURC210-2Z is designed to encapsulate the top flange of the joist, which eliminates the need for web stiffeners in standard installations, simplifying the installation process.

What material and coating is used on this joist hanger, and is it suitable for treated lumber?

The hanger is constructed from 14-gauge steel and features a ZMAX protective coating, which is a heavy-duty galvanized finish engineered for enhanced corrosion resistance. This makes it suitable for use with treated lumber and other demanding environments where moisture or chemical exposure is a concern.

What does the concealed flange design offer compared to a standard joist hanger?

The concealed header flanges on the HSURC210-2Z keep the fastening hardware hidden behind the header, resulting in cleaner visible lines. This makes it particularly well suited for exposed framing conditions where aesthetics matter. Additionally, the obround nail holes on the acute side allow nails to be installed parallel to the joist for faster and more accurate installation.
