The Simpson HUTF Heavy Top-Flange Hanger is a hybrid hanger that incorporates the advantages of both face-mount and top-mount hangers. This heavy-duty, top-flange joist hanger features face-nailing that allows the hanger to be securely attached to the member. The HUTF is available with one "A" flange concealed.

Options:

Sloped and/or Skewed Seat

• HUTF can be skewed to a maximum of 45° or sloped to a maximum of 45°. HUTF can be skewed and sloped down only, provided W ≥ 2 3/8". No skew with slope up options available.
• For skews greater than 15°, uplift loads are 0.75 of the table loads. Hangers with a skew greater than 15° may have all the joist nailing on the outside angle.
• For sloped and skewed combinations, the allowable loads are 0.70 of the table loads.
• For sloped-down-only hangers, allowable load is 0.78 of the table load.

Concealed Flange

• HUTF is available with one A flange concealed at 0.85 of the catalog table load.
• HUTF is available with both flanges concealed provided the W dimension is 2 9/16" or greater, at 0.85 of the table load. See HUCTF for both flanges concealed. No skew options available.

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