Simpson Strong Tie LUS26Z 2x6 Face Mount Joist Hanger 100 Pack

Product Description

The SIMPSON STRONG TIE LUS26Z is a face mount joist hanger engineered for structural framing applications. Designed to fit nominal 2x6 dimensional lumber, this hanger provides a rigid connection between joists and supporting headers or beams. The Z-Max coating delivers enhanced corrosion resistance compared to standard galvanized finishes, making it suitable for treated lumber contact and exposed outdoor environments. Framing contractors and structural carpenters install this hardware as part of floor joist assemblies, ceiling framing, and deck structures where code-compliant connections are required. The hanger ships in a package quantity of 100 units, making it well suited for production framing or large repair projects.

This joist hanger is used in residential and light commercial framing wherever 2x6 lumber must be supported at a perpendicular face mount. Common applications include floor joist systems, deck framing over treated sill members, and ceiling joist connections. The Z-Max finish makes it appropriate for installations involving ACQ, CA, or other preservative-treated lumber where higher corrosion resistance is specified by building codes or project conditions.

Key Features

• Fits nominal 2x6 dimensional lumber for face mount installations
• Z-Max coating provides elevated corrosion resistance for treated-lumber and outdoor use
• Face mount design allows installation without notching the joist or beam
• Sold in a 100-unit package for volume framing applications
• Engineered to meet building code requirements for structural joist connections

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style structural connector for use with nominal 2x6 dimensional lumber in residential and light commercial framing assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed framing contractors or structural carpenters in accordance with local building codes and IRC or IBC framing provisions. Fasten the hanger using only the nail or fastener type and quantity specified on the load table for this product — substituting fastener size or count can void load ratings. Ensure the supporting header or beam is properly sized and plumb before setting the hanger. Do not field-modify the hanger by bending tabs or trimming flanges.
