TFI / TFL / THO Top Mount Hangers
TFI & THO – Engineered for I-Joist to header applications. Offers full lateral
support of the I-Joist top chord, eliminating the need for web stiffeners in
most applications. Raised dimple nailing guides help assure correct 4
nailing into the I-Joist bottom ange. The THO’s feature the patented Seat
Cleat
®
that allows for quick, positive seating. The Seat Cleat
®
will hold the
I-Joist in place, eliminating spring back during nailing in the bottom ange.
TFL – Features 1-1/2" top ange depth that accommodates all header types
as well as back-to-back installations. Also features USP’s patented Seat
Cleat
®
for quick, positive seating.
