Product Description
The Simpson 3 x 4 Panelized Construction Hanger is a top-flange joist hanger engineered by Simpson specifically for the panelized roof construction industry. Built for fabrication environments that depend on jigs or similar precision devices, this hanger is designed to streamline panel assembly by locking joists securely in place without traditional joist nails, allowing panels to drop easily into position and keeping production moving efficiently on the shop floor and job site alike.
Key Features
- Compression dimples lock the joist in place instead of joist nails - eliminates a fastening step during fabrication, reducing assembly time and labor on every panel built
- Top-flange hanger design - positions the hanger for fast, consistent placement in panelized roof assemblies, supporting efficient, repeatable workflows
- Engineered for use with jigs or similar precision fabrication devices - ensures accurate, repeatable joist positioning across high-volume panel production runs
- Panel drop-in design - allows completed panels to seat into place easily, reducing handling time and keeping installation crews moving on the job site
- Zinc Galvanized G90 coating - provides a layer of corrosion resistance suited to standard panelized roof construction environments, supporting long-term structural integrity
Why This Product
- Purpose-built for panelized roof construction - unlike general-purpose joist hangers, this hanger is designed from the ground up for the specific demands of panel fabrication, meaning every design detail supports faster, more accurate production
- Speeds up fabrication without sacrificing holding strength - the compression dimple system secures the joist firmly in place without requiring joist nails, cutting steps out of the assembly process while keeping the connection reliable
- Optimized for jig-based precision environments - the hanger's geometry works in coordination with jigs or similar devices, helping fabricators maintain tight tolerances across large panel runs
- American-made construction hardware from Simpson - produced in the United States and backed by Simpson's long-standing reputation in structural connector solutions for the construction industry

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of construction is the HF34N designed for?
The HF34N is designed specifically for the panelized roof construction industry. It is intended for use with jigs or similar devices for precision fabrication and is not intended for general-purpose joist hanger applications.
What fasteners are required to install the HF34N?
The HF34N installs with 0.148 in. x 2-1/8 in. nails or 0.148 in. x 3 in. nails driven into the header.
How does the HF34N speed up installation compared to traditional hangers?
Instead of using joist nails to secure the joist, the HF34N uses compression dimples that lock the joist in place. This design allows panels to drop easily into position, significantly reducing installation time on the job site.
What corrosion protection does the HF34N provide?
The HF34N features a Zinc Galvanized G90 coating, which provides a layer of corrosion resistance suited for standard panelized roof construction environments.
