Simpson Strong Tie Concealed Joist Hanger, Zmax, 2 X 6

The Simpson Strong-Tie LUC26Z is a concealed-flange joist hanger engineered to support 2 x 6 lumber while maintaining a clean, finished appearance. Designed for end-of-ledger, header, and post conditions, this hanger delivers the structural reliability of traditional framing connectors without visible hardware. The low-profile design works equally well in concealed applications and exposed conditions such as overhead decks, where clean lines enhance the finished look.

Whether you're framing a deck, floor system, or structural ledger connection, this hanger provides a dependable load path for your framing project. The ZMAX galvanized finish resists corrosion in residential and commercial environments, ensuring long-term durability and reducing maintenance concerns over the life of the structure.
