Q:I don't see the 2 by 12 top mount hangers

Answer This Question

A:  Hey Randallkrolzick, we appreciate you reaching out to us with your question. In regards to the JB Galvanized Top-Flange hanger we do offer a 2x12 version. That part number is JB212A. If these are not available in stock there at you local Home Depot, I would suggest to let one of the PRO DESK reps know the part number and they should be able to assist with getting them ordered for you. Also, if you need to verify the load values for this hanger you can contact us at 800-999-5099. Hope you have a great day.

    Q:These made my floor joist 1/4 inch higher than my walls. #1 why in the world did they warped them up? And #2 can I hammer them down?

    Answer This Question

    A:  ​Hi Treehousedad, thank you for your message. We want to make sure we address your question regarding JB26 Junior Bent Hangers. The height of a JB26 is 5-3/8", the height of a sawn cut 2x6 is 5-1/2". The slight difference in height is intended as once the plywood sheathing for roof/floor systems is added over the top of the joists the sheathing would lay flat. If you need more information or have additional questions, please contact the Simpson Strong-Tie Customer Service team at 800-999-5099. We look forward to hearing from you.​​ -Stacy

      Q:What is the difference between the LB and JB designations for this product?
      by|Dec 16, 2019
      2 Answers
      Answer This Question

      A:  The JB28 is a lighter hanger than the LB28: the JB is 18 gauge where the LB is 14 gauge, the JB uses smaller and fewer nails (it uses prongs to attach to the joist) and the JB is not rated for uplift. Thank you!

      by|Dec 17, 2019

        A:  LB is 14 guage. LB is thick enough to allow welding to steel headers. JB is 18 guage. JBA hangers can be used with nailing guns.

            Hello Stephen, this is Stacy with Simpson Strong-Tie. We are sorry to hear the hanger was too short for your application. The JB26 has a height of 5 3/8" meant for 2x6 solid sawn joist sizes. If you would like to discuss this further please call us at (800) 999-5099. We look forward to hearing from you. SimpsonStrongTie

            Be Careful! They are 1/4 too short
            I bought a box of these hangers for 2 x 6 joists. Tried the first one and it was 1/4 too high. The joist is 1/4 inch higher than the support beam. The plywood wood not lay flat. The solution was to return the entire box for a full refund. Thank you Home Depot. I bought another joist hanger without the tabs and manually adjusted so that all was flat. The vendor NEEDS to update their description to make this clear.

              Sits 2x 1/4” too high. Waste of money.
              Would be great if they made a product that matched the dimension of nominal wood without notching.

              Hi Dans, this is Stacy from Simpson Strong-Tie. Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to see your experience with our JB Junior Bent Hanger did not meet your expectations. Top flange hangers are not fabricated to be the same height as the joists that are used in them to allow for roof/floor framing to be applied on top of the hangers We value our customers and are committed to providing exceptional products and service. To see how we can best resolve any problems, please reach out to our Customer Service team by calling 800-999-5099.​ SimpsonStrongTie
                Still haven’t corrected the issue.
                They are sized incorrectly causing the 2x6 to be almost 1/4” above the runner. Way too much more in cost to have not work like they should, returning them tomorrow.

                Hellu Mb21, This is Colin from Simpson Strong-Tie. Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to see your experience with our interior grade JB26 did not meet your expectations. The stirrup for this top flange hanger measurers 1-9/16" Wide and from the bottom of the seat to the top bend line the Height is 5-3/8". Above the bend there are " strength embossments" so that a kiln dried 2x6 joist (1-1/2"x 5-1/2" should rise about an 1/8" of an inch above the bend line and approximately flush with the top of the embossments. But I understand this was not your result. We value our customers and are committed to providing exceptional products and service. To see how we can best resolve any problems, please reach out to our Customer Service team by calling 800-999-5099.​ SimpsonStrongTie
