Product Description
The Simpson HUCQ 2.25" width x 8" tall Heavy Concealed Flange Face-Mount Joist Hanger is a heavy-duty structural connector built for framing applications that demand reliable load transfer and a clean, refined connection. Designed to mount flush against the face of the supporting member, this hanger positions close to the end of the beam - making it a practical choice in tight framing conditions where both structural performance and installation flexibility matter. The ZMAX coating provides a premium level of corrosion resistance, making this hanger well-suited for use with pressure-treated lumber and in moisture-prone environments.
Key Features
- Concealed Header Flanges - Hidden flanges keep the structural connection tucked out of sight, resulting in a cleaner finish without compromising load performance in joist-to-beam applications.
- Face-Mount Design - Mounts directly to the face of the supporting beam and installs close to the end of the member, giving framers more flexibility in tight or space-constrained conditions.
- ZMAX Coating - A premium zinc coating that delivers superior corrosion resistance, making this hanger a dependable choice wherever pressure-treated lumber or moisture exposure is a factor.
- Simpson Strong-Drive SDS Screws Included - Ships with Simpson Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector Screws that provide high load capacity and require no predrilling, keeping installation straightforward and efficient.
- 14-Gauge Steel Construction - Heavy-gauge steel provides the structural rigidity needed for applications requiring additional strength and elevated safety factors in both residential and commercial framing.
Why This Product
- Built for demanding structural connections - Engineered specifically for structures requiring additional strength and safety factors, this hanger is a dependable fit for heavy-duty residential and commercial framing where standard connectors fall short.
- Corrosion resistance where it counts - The ZMAX coating makes this hanger a sound long-term investment in applications involving pressure-treated lumber or environments with consistent moisture exposure, reducing the risk of premature degradation.
- Faster installation with no predrilling required - The included SDS Heavy-Duty Connector Screws drive directly without predrilling, cutting down on installation time and the number of tools needed on the job.
- Cleaner framing with concealed flanges - The concealed header flange design keeps connections neat and unobtrusive, making this hanger a preferred choice when a more refined structural connection is part of the project requirement.
