Designed for builders, carpenters, and DIY enthusiasts, the AB Tools Multi Truss Hanger provides a reliable, high-strength solution for securing joists and beams in structural applications. These hangers deliver essential stability and structural integrity to roofing and decking projects, though users should ensure their specific timber dimensions align with the 47mm internal width to avoid potential gaps or movement.

Yes, the galvanised finish provides the necessary corrosion resistance for outdoor applications.
No, the pack contains only the 10 hangers; nails or bolts must be purchased separately.
These hangers are manufactured from 1.5mm thick steel.
Yes, the hanger includes a dedicated M12 hole specifically designed for secure fixing into masonry using appropriate wall anchors.
The internal width is 47mm.
Yes, they are designed to provide stable fixing for joists and beams in various construction projects, including roofing.
Verify the timber width is exactly 47mm; if it is narrower, use shims to ensure a tight fit to prevent structural instability.
Check for debris behind the mounting plate or ensure the support beam surface is perfectly flat.
Use a smaller pilot hole if driving bolts into hardwood, and ensure you are using the correct sized drill bit for your chosen fasteners.
For optimal results, ensure the timber joist is cut square and fits snugly within the 47mm width of the hanger. Position the hanger against the supporting structure and mark your pilot holes if necessary. Use high-quality construction-grade nails or bolts that match the diameter of the pre-drilled holes. For the M12 fixing point, ensure the structural substrate (such as a concrete wall or heavy timber beam) is capable of supporting the intended load. While the galvanised coating is highly resistant to corrosion, it is recommended to inspect the fixings annually, especially in coastal areas or highly humid environments, to ensure no surface oxidation has breached the protective layer.
