Description
The HGUS is an extra-heavy-capacity hanger for applications requiring girder support. This girder hanger features double-shear nailing that distributes the load through two points on each joist nail for greater strength. Value-engineered, the HGUS is designed to carry high loads for an economical price.

When 0.148″ x 3″ nails are specified, use 0.148″ x 1 1/2″ nails into the header and 0.148″ x 3″ nails into the joist and reduce the load to 0.77 of the table values. See Fastener Design Information.
