• Wider Strap Design
  Increases surface area on the supporting timber and allows for greater nail spacing, improving the critical hanger-to-support connection.

• Speed-Prong for Easy Positioning
  Integrated prongs temporarily hold the hanger in place, freeing the installer’s hands for fast and accurate nailing.
