Product Description
The Simpson Top Flange Hanger for Heavy Beam 8x14 is a heavy-duty structural connector engineered by Simpson to handle medium to high loads in solid sawn and engineered wood framing applications. Sized specifically for 8x14 heavy beam installations, this top-flange hanger delivers reliable, rotation-resistant performance in demanding structural connections where beam integrity and alignment are critical.
Key Features
- Top-flange design sized for 8x14 heavy beams - fits large-dimension framing members precisely, eliminating the guesswork and field modifications that come with ill-fitting hardware
- Full-height joist flange - captures the top chord of the joist to prevent rotation, keeping supported members properly aligned under load and improving overall structural stability
- Engineered for medium to high load capacity - performs confidently in demanding solid sawn and engineered wood applications where connection strength is non-negotiable
- One-piece construction - removes the variables associated with welded hangers, providing a consistent, cost-effective connector without sacrificing load-carrying performance
- Galvanized steel finish - provides corrosion resistance suited to typical framing environments, helping the connector hold up over the life of the structure
Why This Product
- Purpose-built fit for 8x14 heavy beam framing - rather than adapting a general-purpose hanger, builders get a connector designed from the ground up for this specific beam size, reducing installation time and connection variability
- Rotation prevention built into the design - the full-height joist flange actively stabilizes the supported member, a practical advantage in applications where load shifts or long spans put lateral stress on beam connections
- Cost-effective alternative to welded connectors - the one-piece construction delivers comparable medium to high load performance without the added cost and complexity of welded hanger assemblies
- Made in the United States by a trusted structural hardware brand - the HB814 carries the quality standard builders associate with Simpson, backed by consistent manufacturing for structural-grade reliability

Frequently Asked Questions
What beam size is the HB814 designed to fit?
The HB814 is specifically designed to fit an 8x14 heavy beam, making it appropriate for large-dimension solid sawn and engineered wood framing members.
How does the full-height joist flange benefit the installation?
The full-height joist flange captures the top chord of the joist, which prevents rotation of the supported member. This enhances structural stability and helps maintain proper alignment under load.
What gauge steel is used in the HB814, and what finish does it come in?
The HB814 is made from 10 gauge steel and comes standard with a galvanized finish. It may also be ordered with a hot-dip galvanized finish for environments requiring greater corrosion resistance.
How does the one-piece design compare to welded hangers?
The one-piece construction of the HB814 eliminates the need for welded components, which reduces manufacturing complexity and provides a more cost-effective solution while still delivering medium to high load-carrying performance.
