Product Features
The Simpson Strong-Tie HHUS5.50/10HDG is a heavy-capacity, face-mount joist hanger engineered for applications where higher structural loads demand superior connection strength. Measuring 51/4 inches wide by 9 inches tall, this hanger utilizes an advanced double-shear nailing system that distributes load forces through two points on each joist nail, delivering exceptional holding power while streamlining the fastening process. Manufactured in the United States and finished with a Hot-Dip Galvanized (HDG) coating, this hanger is built for long-term performance in demanding environments.
Key Features
- Double-Shear Nailing Technology: Distributes the load through two points on each joist nail for greater strength, allowing for fewer nails without sacrificing connection integrity.
- Faster Installation: Engineered to reduce the total number of fasteners required, saving significant time on the job site.
- Common Nail Compatible: Accepts all common nails for the same connection, eliminating the need for specialty fasteners.
- Hot-Dip Galvanized Finish: Provides robust corrosion resistance suitable for harsh or moisture-exposed environments.
- Heavy-Capacity Design: Purpose-built for applications where standard hangers cannot meet the required load demands.
- 14-Gauge Steel Construction: Delivers a strong, durable foundation for critical structural connections.
- Made in the USA: Manufactured domestically to consistent quality standards.
