The Simpson Double 2x12 Face-Mount Joist Hanger is a heavy-duty connector engineered by Simpson Strong-Tie for structural framing applications requiring additional strength and safety factors. Built from 14-gauge steel with a G90 zinc galvanized coating, this face-mount hanger is designed to support double 2x12 joists in demanding load-bearing assemblies. Its "U" design provides flexible positioning on the header, making it a practical and reliable choice for engineers and contractors working on residential and commercial framing projects alike.

Key Features

• "U" design allows for flexibility of placement on the header - lets you adjust positioning during installation without being locked into a single location, saving time and reducing error on the job site
• Nominal joist size: Double 2x12 - engineered specifically for doubled-up 2x12 members, ensuring a secure, properly fitted connection in heavy-duty floor and roof framing systems
• Made from 14-gauge steel - provides the structural integrity and load capacity needed for demanding framing applications where standard-duty hangers fall short
• Galvanized (G90) for extra corrosion resistance - the zinc galvanized finish helps the hanger hold up in moisture-prone environments, extending the service life of the connection

Why This Product

• Heavy-duty performance where it counts - the HU series is specifically designed for structures requiring additional strength and safety factors, making this hanger a dependable choice for critical structural connections rather than light-duty framing work
• Engineered and tested to perform - Simpson Strong-Tie connectors are manufactured to the highest quality standards and are the trusted choice of engineers and contractors, giving buyers confidence that the product will perform as specified
• Corrosion-resistant construction for lasting durability - the G90 zinc galvanized coating goes beyond basic protection, helping the hanger resist rust and degradation over time in a range of job site and environmental conditions
• Made in the United States to consistent quality standards - domestic production supports reliable manufacturing tolerances, so the hanger fits and installs as expected every time
