IHFL / IHF Face Mount I-Joist Hangers
IHFL (18GA) and IHF (16GA) series face mount hangers feature speed prongs for
temporary placement and seat cleats to grab the bottom ange of the supported
I-joist. Diamond holes in header and joist allow for optional Max nailing for
customized fastening to match allowable load needed. Install nails in all fastener
holes when the Max allowable load is needed while lighter load capacities can
be achieved with a quick installation of round holes only, saving you time and
money on the jobsite.
Features:
• Seat Cleats lock bottom chord of I-joist eliminating need for joist nails.
• Dimples with diamond nail holes for optional joist nailing when higher
uplift loads are needed.
• Min/Max nailing provide exible installation options.
