Double shear nail design
features fewer nails and
faster installation
Uses standard length
common nails
The HUS, JUS and MUS hanger series offers double shear nailing. MiTek’s
dimple allows for 30° to 45° nailing through the joist into the header
resulting in higher loads and less nailing. Slant nailing allows for higher
load values, fewer nails, and faster installation.
Materials: JUS – 18 gauge; MUS – 18 gauge; HUS – 14 or 16 gauge
Finish: G90 galvanizing
Options: See chart for Corrosion Finish Options. See HUS Specialty
Options Chart.
