Product Description
The Simpson Double 2x6 Panelized Construction Hanger, G90 Galvanized, F26-2 is a top-flange joist hanger engineered by Simpson specifically for panelized roof construction applications where jigs or similar devices are used for precision fabrication. Designed to let panels drop efficiently into place, this hanger is built for workflows where installation speed and repeatability are essential. As the first hanger type ever developed by Simpson, the F hanger series carries a proven track record of dependability in panelized roof assemblies, offering a cost-effective solution for contractors and fabricators who demand consistent, fast results.
Key Features
- Compression dimples lock the joist in place - eliminates the need for joist nails during installation, reducing steps and accelerating the overall fastening process on the job
- Top-flange hanger design - allows panels to drop easily and precisely into place, making it well suited to jig-based fabrication environments where speed and accuracy matter
- Engineered for panelized roof construction - purpose-built for this specific application, so the geometry and load path are optimized for double 2x6 joist assemblies in panelized roof systems
- G90 zinc galvanized coating - provides a durable protective finish that helps resist corrosion in typical construction environments, supporting long-term performance in the installed assembly
- Made in the United States - produced domestically to consistent quality standards expected from a trusted structural connector manufacturer
Why This Product
- Built for speed in panelized roof production - the combination of compression dimple locking and a drop-in panel design means fewer installation steps per hanger, helping fabrication crews move faster without sacrificing structural integrity
- A purpose-specific tool for a demanding application - unlike general-purpose joist hangers, the F26-2 is designed exclusively for panelized roof construction using precision fabrication jigs, ensuring the hanger performs as intended in the environment it was engineered for
- Decades of proven performance behind the design - the F hanger was the first hanger type developed by Simpson, giving buyers confidence in a design that has been refined and validated across many years of real-world use in panelized construction
- Reliable corrosion protection with G90 galvanizing - the G90 zinc galvanized finish delivers a recognized level of coating performance, helping the hanger hold up through construction exposure and the service life of the roof assembly

Frequently Asked Questions
What joist sizes does the F26-2 hanger accommodate?
The F26-2 is designed for double 2x6 joist sizes. The F hanger family more broadly accommodates double 2x6, 4x4, and 4x6 joist sizes.
What type of nails should be used to install the F26-2?
The F26-2 should be installed with (2) 0.148" x 2-1/8" OR 0.148" x 3" nails, as specified for this hanger.
Is the F26-2 suitable for all framing applications?
No. The F26-2 is designed for panelized roof construction only, where jigs or similar devices are used for precision fabrication. It is not intended for general-purpose joist hanging outside of panelized roof assemblies.
How does the F26-2 achieve faster installation compared to standard hangers?
Instead of requiring joist nails to secure the joist, the F26-2 uses compression dimples that lock the joist in place. This design, combined with the top-flange configuration that allows panels to drop easily into place, significantly speeds up the installation process in panelized roof construction workflows.
