Product Overview
LU26 Standard Joist Hanger
LUCZ — Concealed-flange hanger available for 2x6, 2x8, 2x10 and 2x12 lumber. Ideal for end of ledger/header or post conditions, the LUCZ also provides cleaner lines for exposed conditions such as overhead decks.
LU — Value engineered for strength and economy. Precision-formed — engineered for installation ease and design value.
U — The standard U hanger provides flexibility of joist to header installation. Versatile fastener selection with tested allowable loads.
HU/HUC — Most models have triangle and round holes. To achieve maximum loads, fill both round and triangle holes with common nails. These heavy-duty connectors are designed for schools and other structures requiring additional strength, longevity and safety factors.
Material:
See tables
Finish:
Galvanized (G90)
Installation:
Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes.
HU/HUC — Can be installed filling round holes only, or filling round and triangle holes for maximum values.
Joists sloped up to 1/4:12 achieve table loads.
For installations to masonry or concrete, see HU/HUC/HSUR/L.
HU/HUC hangers can be welded to a steel member. Allowable loads are the lesser of the values in the hanger tables or the weld capacity — refer to technical bulletin HU/HUC Welded onto Steel Members (T-HUHUC-W).
When nailing into carrying member's end grain, the allowable load is adjusted by a factor of 0.67.
Options:
For both flanges concealed, order HUC.
When the HUC is skewed, the header flange opposite the skew direction is not concealed. See image gallery.
The HU is available with the A flanges straight at table loads listed.
For low-cost, code approved 45° skewed hangers, see SUR/SUL.
For field-adjustable hangers, see LSSJ, LRUZ and LSSR.
See table-modifications table for available options and associated load capacities for U and HU hangers.
For ease of ordering, refer to technical bulletin U/HU Hanger Special Order Worksheet (T-U-HU-WS).
LU/LUC cannot be modified.
Product Notes:
Model configurations may differ from those shown. Some HU models do not have triangle holes. Contact Simpson Strong-Tie.
