Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie LSSR26Z is a field adjustable rafter hanger designed to connect 2x6 nominal lumber to headers, ridges, or beams. Its standout feature is its ultimate adjustability: it can handle angles up to a 45-degree slope (up or down) and a 45-degree skew (left or right), completely eliminating the need for expensive custom-ordered hardware. Box of 20.
Key Specifications & Benefits:
- Post-Installation Friendly: You can slide this hanger into place after your roof rafters have already been cut and temporarily tacked onto the ridge beam.
- ZMAX Galvanization: Built with an 18-gauge steel frame coated in a ZMAX finish, meaning it gives extra rust protection for pressure-treated wood and outdoor elements like decks or pergolas.
- Hinged Swivel Seat: The bottom seat bends easily on a hinge to support the bottom edge of your wood, no matter how steep the roof pitch.
- Versatile Fit: It natively supports three major framing styles: common rafters, miter-cut jack rafters, and plumb-cut jack rafters.
Fastener & Installation Rules:
To meet structural building codes, you must fill the specified round and triangle holes using the correct nail sizes:
- Face/Header Connection: Use 0.148-in x 2-1/2-in nails driven straight into the main supporting beam.
- Joist/Rafter Connection: Use 0.148-in x 1-1/2-in nails driven directly into the side and seat of the 2x6 rafter.
