Solid Sawn Lumber Connectors
The HF24N, HF26N, HF34N and HF36N hangers are designed for panels or components using jigs or similar devices for precision fabrication. Grip-groove feature provides positive lock into the 2x or 3x member without nailing. F series panel hangers are engineered components for panelized construction only. MATERIAL: 18 gauge FINISH: Galvanized. Some products available in ZMAX® coating; see Corrosion Information, page 18-19. STANDARD INSTALLATION: • Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. • On the F-series hanger, the seat nail is non-structural and does not contribute to the load. • For additional information on retrofit options see flier F-RUZNRUZ (see page 213 for details). ALTERNATE INSTALLATION: • In panelized construction, it is acceptable to nail through the sheathing into the hanger’s top flange using one 10dx2 1⁄8" nail placed in the middle third of the top flange, no closer than 1⁄4" from the back edge of the hanger. See technical bulletin T-HFHANGER for allowable load adjustments and additional information (see page 214 for details). CODES: See page 20 for Code Reference Key Chart.
