The LEG hanger is a connector designed to support engineered wood beams for lower-load applications. This light end beam and glulam hanger has top flanges to capture the top chord of the beam to prevent rotation, but can be ordered without them depending on application needs. The LEG hanger may be skewed or sloped up to 45°.
Key Features
