Versatile High-Strength Joist Hanger for Timber and Masonry Installations

The Simpson Strong-Tie SAE Face Fix Hanger is a heavy-duty solution tailored for demanding structural connections, particularly where additional strength and adaptable installation options are required. Designed to support timber joists securely from timber or masonry, this hanger is built for long-term performance across varied construction scenarios.

Key Features

• Heavy-Duty Build: Engineered for strength-critical applications, providing a reliable fix for structural timber joints.

• Dual Installation Options: While primarily suited for timber-to-timber use, it can be fixed to masonry using M12 studs and Rawlplug Resin.

• Multi-Height Compatibility: Formed from standard steel blanks (200–720mm) and bent to standard timber widths, allowing one hanger model to suit multiple joist height requirements.

• 12mm Bolt Holes: Includes bolt holes for 12mm diameter fasteners, ensuring a strong, face-fixed connection.

• Code-Compliant Depth: Hanger depth must be at least 60% of the supported timber's height unless additional lateral restraint is added.

Benefits

• One-piece solution compatible with various timber heights

• Can be mounted to either timber or masonry structures

• Reduces product complexity with flexible blank sizing

• Galvanised finish resists corrosion for longer service life
