Simpson Strong-Tie is simplifying post frame construction and reducing connector layout labor costs by half with the launch of PFUD undersaddle hangers.
• The hangers feature a two-sided design so that one hanger supports ceiling joists on each side of a truss instead of requiring a separate face-mounted hanger for each joist.
• The continuous seat fits snugly under the truss’s bottom chord, automatically aligning parts vertically for an easier, faster layout.
• For single-side applications, installers simply bend and separate the hanger along the perforations to create two face-mounted options.
