Simpson Strong-Tie LUS ZMAX Galvanized Face-Mount Joist Hanger for 2x4 (case of 100)

Not only do angles make joints stronger, they also provide more consistent, straight corners. Simpson Strong-Tie offers a wide variety of angles in various sizes and thicknesses to handle light-duty jobs or projects where a structural connection is needed. Some can be bent (skewed) to match the project. For outdoor projects or those where moisture is present, use our ZMAX zinc-coated connectors, which provide extra resistance against corrosion (look for a "Z" at the end of the model number).

The LUS26Z joist hanger provides a strong connection between a 2x6 floor, ceiling or deck joist and the header. Joist hangers install easily, eliminate the need for toe-nailing and are required by the building code in many areas. The LUS26Z installs with either nails or Simpson Strong-Tie Strong-Drive SD screws and features ZMAX galvanization for exterior and preservative-treated-wood applications.

Joist hangers are designed to provide support underneath the joist, rafter or beam to provide a strong a connection. Simpson Strong-Tie offers a diverse line of hangers to handle almost any application with top flange, concealed flange and field-skewable and slopeable options. The LSU series of hangers may be sloped and skewed in the field, offering a versatile solution for attaching joists and rafters. These hangers may be sloped up or down and skewed left or right, up to 45°.
