Simpson Strong-Tie MIT9.5 - Top Flange I-Joist Hanger - Galvanized
Top-flange hangers for engineered wood are an integral component for providing maximum down loads that require a minimum amount of fasteners. These metal connectors are created to be installed before the joist is in place. The Simpson Strong-Tie MIT is designed to support 90° connections of I-joists to headers. This top-flange hanger features a Funnel Flange design allowing for easier placement of members. The hanger also features positive-angle nailing (PAN), specifically created for I-joists to minimize splitting.
Features
- Positive-angle nailing (PAN) minimizes splitting of the flanges while permitting time-saving nailing from a better angle
- With positive-angle nailing, the nail hole material is not removed
- Optional triangle nail holes may be used for increased uplift capacity; optional uplift nailing requires the addition of properly-secured web stiffeners
- Cost-effective solution for standard 90° connections in comparison to welded hangers
- Features optional fastening with PAT for steel applications/header
- Actual joist size: 1-3/4 in. x 9-1/2 in.
- Made from 16-gauge steel
- Galvanized (G90) for extra corrosion resistance
