Product Description
The Simpson HHUS46 Galvanized Face-Mount Joist Hanger for 4x6 from Simpson Strong-Tie is a heavy-duty, face-mount connector built for structural applications where higher load values are required. Designed to provide support underneath the joist, rafter, or beam, this hanger creates a strong, reliable connection in framing situations that demand more than standard hanger performance. Fabricated from 14-gauge steel with a G90 zinc galvanized finish, it is engineered for lasting performance in demanding conditions.
Key Features
- Double-shear nailing design - distributes the load through two points on each joist nail, delivering greater connection strength compared to single-shear systems and making this hanger well-suited for high-load structural applications.
- Fewer nails required, standard nails accepted - the double-shear system allows for a reduced nail count while maintaining connection integrity, and all connections use standard 16d common nails, speeding up installation and simplifying jobsite logistics.
- 14-gauge steel construction - provides the rigid, heavy-capacity support needed for 4x6 joist, rafter, and beam connections where structural performance is critical.
- G90 zinc galvanized finish - offers extra corrosion resistance, making this hanger a dependable choice for framing in moisture-exposed or outdoor environments.
- Face-mount configuration - attaches directly to the face of the supporting header or beam, allowing for straightforward positioning and a secure, stable fit during installation.
- Do not bend or remove tabs - tabs are integral to the hanger's structural performance; keeping them intact ensures the connection meets its intended load capacity.
Why This Product
- Engineered for high-load framing connections - the HHUS series from Simpson Strong-Tie is specifically designed for applications where higher load values are needed, giving builders and contractors a purpose-built solution rather than a general-purpose hanger pressed into a demanding role.
- Faster installation without sacrificing strength - the double-shear nailing system reduces the total number of nails required and works with standard 16d common nails, cutting installation time and keeping material requirements simple on the jobsite.
- Built to handle moisture-prone environments - the G90 zinc galvanized coating provides a proven level of corrosion resistance, making this hanger a practical choice for decks, exterior framing, and other applications where exposure to moisture is a real concern.
- Trusted Simpson Strong-Tie engineering - Simpson Strong-Tie is a recognized name in structural connectors, and the HHUS46 reflects that heritage with a design focused on load distribution, ease of use, and consistent, repeatable performance across framing applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What makes the HHUS46 suitable for high-load applications?
- The HHUS46 features double-shear nailing, which distributes the load through two points on each joist nail. This design provides greater strength compared to single-shear connections, making it well-suited for applications where higher load values are needed.
- What size lumber is the HHUS46 designed to support?
- The HHUS46 is designed for a nominal 4x6 joist, rafter, or beam member.
- What type of nails should be used to install the HHUS46?
- The HHUS46 should be installed with 16d common nails. The double-shear nailing design also allows for the use of fewer nails overall while maintaining connection strength.
- Is the HHUS46 suitable for outdoor or moisture-exposed environments?
- Yes. The HHUS46 is coated with a G90 zinc galvanized finish, which provides extra corrosion resistance, making it appropriate for use in environments where moisture exposure is a concern.
