See Hanger tables. See Hanger Options for hanger modifications, which may result in reduced loads.

U - The standard U hanger provides flexibility of joist to header installation. Versatile fastener selection with tested allowable loads.

HU - Most models have triangle and round holes. To achieve maximum loads, fill both round and triangle holes with common nails. These heavy-duty connectors are designed for schools and other structures requiring additional strength, longevity and safety factors.

HUCQ - Features concealed flanges so it can be installed close to the end of the supporting beam. They install with SDS screws (supplied with the hanger) for high capacity and ease of installation.

Material: See tables.

Finish: Galvanized

Installation:

• Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes.
• HU - can be installed filling round holes only, or filling round and triangle holes for maximum values.
• HUCQ - When using structural composite lumber columns, the capacities shown in the tables are for fasteners applied to the wide face of the column.
• Web Stiffeners are required for all I-joists used with these hangers.
• See instructions for installation to masonry or concrete.
