The Simpson HUC814 8x14 Concealed-Flange Heavy Face-Mount Hanger is a heavy-duty structural connector built for demanding joist and beam connections in both residential and commercial construction. Engineered by Simpson for 8x14 lumber, this face-mount hanger combines robust 14-gauge steel construction with concealed header flanges, making it a practical choice wherever structural performance and clean framing aesthetics are both priorities.

Key Features

• Concealed Header Flanges - Flanges are hidden from view once installed, delivering cleaner visible lines in exposed framing conditions without sacrificing load capacity or structural integrity.
• Heavy-Duty 14-Gauge Steel Construction - Built from 14 ga. (68 mil) steel, this hanger is rated for heavy structural framing connections that require additional strength and elevated safety factors.
• Face-Mount Design - Attaches directly to the face of the header or beam, simplifying installation and providing a secure, positive connection for 8x14 lumber in a wide range of framing applications.
• Galvanized Finish - The galvanized coating provides a layer of corrosion resistance, helping protect the connector in environments where long-term durability is a consideration.
• Configurable Seat Options - Select models in this series can be configured with a skewable seat or a seat that slopes as far as up to 45 deg., offering flexibility for non-standard framing conditions.

Why This Product

• Built for Heavy Structural Work - At 14 ga. (68 mil) steel, this hanger is specifically suited for heavy structural framing connections where standard-gauge hangers may not meet the required strength or safety thresholds.
• Aesthetics Meet Performance - The concealed-flange design addresses a real challenge in exposed framing: maintaining a tidy, unobtrusive appearance while still delivering the holding power a heavy-duty beam connection demands.
• Versatility for Complex Framing - With seat configurations that can accommodate slopes up to 45 deg., this hanger adapts to angled and non-standard installations that would otherwise require custom solutions.
• Domestic Quality You Can Specify with Confidence - Produced in the United States by Simpson, a recognized name in structural connectors, the HUC814 is a dependable choice for contractors and engineers who need consistent, verifiable quality on the jobsite.
