Simpson Strong-Tie HUC Heavy Concealed-Flange Face-Mount Joist Hangers

• Concealed header flanges for cleaner visible lines in exposed framing
• 14 ga. (68 mil) steel with a G90 zinc galvanized finish
• Optional triangle holes for additional load, in addition to the round holes
• Tested, load rated and code compliant under ICC-ES ESR-2552
• 18 sizes from 2x8 up to 5-1/2 in. wide beams and 6x6 timber

Commonly used for:

• Joist to header or beam connections where hanger flanges should stay hidden
• Beam-to-beam connections in PSL and other engineered wood
• Multi-ply 2x10 and 2x12 headers (2-, 3- and 4-ply models)
• 6x6 timber connections (HUC66)
• Connections to a steel carrying member, screwed or welded

All models are 14 ga., G90 galvanized, sold one per package. W, H and B are as listed in Simpson's HUC product table; the HUC5319 is not on Simpson's current table, so check its dimensions with us before ordering. Allowable loads depend on the carried and carrying members, species, fasteners and the holes filled, so check Simpson's published load tables for your model and jurisdiction.

1. Select the hanger for your member size and use the fasteners Simpson specifies for that model in its load tables.
2. Fill all round holes to reach table loads. Fill the triangle holes as well for maximum values. Use all specified fasteners.
3. For a boxed joist, fill all round holes on both legs of the hanger.
4. To attach to steel, fill all round holes on both flanges, or weld with 1 in. segments spaced equally top and bottom, half on each side of the hanger.
5. Table loads apply to joists sloped up to 1/4:12. Nailing into the end grain of a solid sawn carrying member reduces the allowable load by a factor of 0.67.
