Versatile, Site-Adjustable Hanger for I-Joist to I-Joist and Solid Joist Connections

The Simpson Strong-Tie ITBS I-Joist Hanger is an innovative, backer-free solution designed to streamline the connection of I-joists or solid joists—especially in skewed configurations. With site-adjustable skew from 5° to 67.5°, this revolutionary hanger eliminates the need for backer blocks and reduces confusion around left/right handedness, making it ideal for modern timber floor systems.
