The HUCQ is designed for structures requiring additional strength and safety factors. These face-mount joist hangers have concealed header flanges and can be installed close to the end of the supporting beam. These heavy-duty hangers install with Simpson Strong-Tie® Strong-Drive® SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws for high capacity with no predrilling for ease of installation.

Key Features

  • Concealed flanges provide cleaner lines for exposed conditions
  • HUCQ-series hangers are tested, load rated and code compliant
  • Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws are included
  • Fire-resistant F (flame) and T (temperature) rated in Intertek Design No. SST/WPCF 120-01.

Material

  • 14 gauge

Finish

  • Galvanized. Most models available in stainless steel or ZMAX® coating.

Installation

  • Use all specified fasteners; see General Notes.
  • Install 1/4" x 2 1/2" Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws, which are provided, in all round holes. (Lag screws will not achieve the same load.)
  • HUCQ hangers can be welded to a steel member. Allowable loads are the lesser of the values in the hanger tables or the weld capacity — refer to technical bulletin HU/HUC Welded onto Steel Members (T-C-HUHUC-W).

Options
