The Simpson HSULC Heavy Left-Skewed U-Shaped Joist Hanger is designed for high-load, skewed wood-to-wood connections, ensuring maximum stability and support. Featuring a 45-degree left skew, this hanger is ideal for angled applications where traditional joist hangers are not suitable.

With its ZMAX galvanized coating, the HSULC hanger provides enhanced corrosion resistance, making it an excellent choice for outdoor, humid, or chemically treated wood environments. Its heavy-gauge steel construction ensures exceptional lateral and vertical load performance, offering the strength needed for demanding structural projects such as decks, pergolas, and large framing applications.

Key Features:

• ZMAX Galvanized Finish: Provides superior corrosion resistance for outdoor and treated wood applications.
• 45-Degree Left Skew: Designed for angled joist-to-beam connections.
• High Load Capacity: Engineered for demanding structural applications.
• Heavy-Gauge Steel Construction: Delivers strength, durability, and stability.
• Versatile Compatibility: Designed for use with both solid sawn lumber and engineered wood materials.

Installation:

• Use Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws for securing the hanger to the supporting structure.
• Secure the hanger to the beam using all pre-punched fastener holes to achieve the full rated load capacity.
• Ensure the joist is fully seated within the hanger before securing fasteners.
• If installing into engineered wood or dense lumber, pre-drilling may be necessary to prevent splitting and ensure a flush connection.
• Verify the skewed angle and positioning before fastening to avoid misalignment during framing.

Applications:

• Deck Construction: Provides a secure, angled joist connection in outdoor deck framing.
• Pergolas & Outdoor Structures: Supports skewed beam and joist attachments in gazebos, patios, and pergolas.
• Roof Framing: Ideal for angled rafter-to-beam connections in pitched or custom roof designs.
• Engineered Wood Framing: Compatible with LVL, PSL, and other engineered wood materials for complex framing applications.
• General Heavy-Duty Wood Framing: Suitable for residential, commercial, and industrial wood-framed structures requiring skewed connections.

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