The Simpson Strong-Tie HUCQ series offers heavy-duty, concealed-flange face-mount joist hangers crafted from stainless steel, providing exceptional strength and corrosion resistance for demanding structural applications. These hangers are designed for use with Simpson Strong-Tie Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws, ensuring high capacity without the need for predrilling, facilitating quick and efficient installation.

Key Features:

• Stainless Steel Construction: Offers superior corrosion resistance, making these hangers ideal for both interior and exterior applications, including those exposed to harsh environmental conditions.
• Concealed Flange Design: The hidden header flanges provide clean lines for exposed conditions and allow installation close to the end of the supporting beam, enhancing aesthetic appeal without compromising structural integrity.
• Quick Install Feature with SDS Screws: Each hanger is designed for use with Simpson Strong-Tie Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws, which are included. These screws require no predrilling, simplifying the installation process and saving valuable time on the job site.
• Versatile Application: Suitable for connecting wood joists to wood, masonry, or concrete, providing flexibility across various construction scenarios.
• Code Compliance: HUCQ-series hangers are rigorously tested, load-rated, and comply with building codes, ensuring reliable performance in structural applications.

Installation:

• Fasteners: Use all specified Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws, which are provided, in all round holes. Lag screws will not achieve the same load capacity.
• No Predrilling Required: The SDS screws are designed for high capacity without the need for predrilling, facilitating a faster and more efficient installation process.

Applications:

• Coastal & Marine Construction: The stainless steel construction makes this hanger ideal for applications in high-moisture environments such as docks, piers, and boardwalks.
• Decks & Outdoor Structures: Provides strong, concealed support for wood joists in deck construction, pergolas, and gazebos, offering superior resistance to weathering.
• Architectural Timber Framing: Perfect for exposed beam connections in both decorative and structural wood framing where aesthetics and durability are crucial.
• Masonry & Concrete Connections: Compatible with wood-to-masonry and wood-to-concrete applications, ensuring strong structural support in foundation and framing projects.
• Engineered Wood & Commercial Applications: Supports engineered wood products like LVL and PSL beams, as well as cold-formed steel joists, making it suitable for high-capacity commercial projects.

NOTE: The correct fasteners installed in the correct position must be used to achieve published load values
