Product Description
A lower-cost alternative to bolted hangers, the THGQ hangers for multi-ply girder trusses use Simpson Strong-Tie® Strong-Drive® SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws to provide high load capacities and easier installation compared to bolts. The Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws help transfer the load between the plies of the supporting girder when they penetrate all plies. THGQ models offer minimum and optional maximum fastener quantities to accommodate varying design needs.
