The Simpson Strong-Tie HFN Panelized Construction Hanger (ZMAX Galvanized) is engineered to provide exceptional strength in panelized wood-frame construction while offering superior corrosion protection. Designed for fast and efficient installation, this hanger ensures a reliable connection between purlins and supporting members in warehouses, commercial buildings, and large-scale wood structures.
Featuring a ZMAX galvanized coating, the HFN hanger delivers extra protection against corrosion, making it ideal for environments with increased exposure to moisture or chemicals. Whether used in panelized roof systems, solid sawn lumber connections, or glulam beam applications, this hanger ensures long-term structural integrity and resistance to the elements.
Key Features:
-
ZMAX Galvanized Coating: Provides significantly enhanced corrosion resistance, making it ideal for humid, coastal, or chemically treated wood environments.
-
High-Strength Performance: Designed to handle heavy loads in panelized wood construction.
-
Efficient Installation: Precision engineering eliminates the need for field modifications, reducing installation time.
-
Versatile Compatibility: Works with solid sawn lumber, glulam beams, and prefabricated wood-frame structures.
-
Reliable Structural Connection: Provides a secure, stable attachment between purlins and supporting members.
Installation:
-
Use the Correct Fasteners: Install using manufacturer-specified nails or screws to ensure maximum load capacity and a secure connection.
-
Prepare Surfaces: Ensure all connection points are clean, properly aligned, and free of debris before installation.
-
Attach in Sequence: Secure the hanger to the supporting beam or girder first, then install the purlin or joist.
-
Avoid Field Modifications: The hanger is pre-engineered for easy installation without additional adjustments.
Applications:
-
Panelized Roof Systems: Ensures strong, long-lasting purlin-to-girder connections.
-
Solid Sawn Lumber Installations: Provides a reinforced connection for heavy-duty wood framing.
-
Glulam Beam Construction: Designed to handle the higher loads of engineered wood structures.
-
Warehouse & Industrial Facilities: Ideal for large-scale wood-frame buildings.
-
Commercial Buildings: Supports extensive roof and floor framing systems.
NOTE: The correct fasteners installed in the correct position must be used to achieve published load values
