Simpson Strong-Tie Joist Hanger/AH Strap 100mm W

The Simpson Strong-Tie silver-coloured, height-adjustable Joist Hanger/AH Strap is 100mm wide. This industry standard timber hanger for solid joists is made of mild steel that is galvanized to provide durable support with ease of installation. The strap is wide enough to increase the contact area and provide improved nail spacing, that enhances the performance of the critical hanger-to-support part of the connection. The speed and convenience of installation is increased by speed prongs which quickly hold the hanger in place, leaving both hands free to nail the joist hanger in place. This also makes installation safe as the installer no longer has to try to hold hanger, joist and nail with one hand and swing a hammer with the other. Minimum and maximum nailing schedules are stamped into the strap providing correct installation information for site operatives. In addition, the model number and size is stamped into the seat of the hanger for easy identification, even after installation. A location tab, characteristic of the JHA270 range featured at the bottom of the hanger allows quick and accurate alignment. The CE-marked product has up to 5.5kN Long Term Safe Working Load, and it is suitable for both domestic and commercial applications.
