The Simpson MBHAR5.50/9.25 is a top-flange concrete and masonry hanger engineered for demanding structural connections where precision and reliability are non-negotiable. Designed as a single-piece, non-welded connector, this skewed-right hanger accommodates solid sawn lumber, truss assemblies, and engineered wood products with equal confidence. Pre-skewed 45 degrees to the right, the MBHAR5.50/9.25 eliminates field fabrication guesswork while delivering a clean, code-compliant connection in masonry and concrete applications. Backed by a G90 galvanized finish, this hanger is built to resist corrosion in the environments where masonry construction demands long-term performance.
