Simpson Strong-Tie Adjustable THA Truss Hangers

Simpson Strong-Tie Adjustable Truss Hangers

Simpson Strong-Tie adjustable truss hangers are built to provide reliable support and flexibility for a variety of truss and beam applications. The THA series features extended straps that can be bent in the field for precise height adjustments, making it ideal for top-flange or face-mount installations. For projects where appearance matters, the THAC series offers a concealed flange design that hides nailing surfaces while maintaining structural integrity.

THAR and THAL hangers are engineered for angled connections with a 45° skew to the right or left, providing field-adjustable support for complex framing geometries. All models are constructed from high-strength steel with dense nailing patterns for secure attachment, ensuring these hangers deliver both strength and versatility for residential and commercial truss installations.

Simpson Strong-Tie adjustable truss hangers are engineered to provide flexibility, strength, and ease of installation for both residential and commercial framing. Designed for applications where truss placement may need fine-tuning, these hangers accommodate a variety of heights, angles, and mounting preferences without compromising structural integrity. Built to support both top-flange and face-mount installations, these hangers streamline the process of aligning trusses accurately while maintaining load-bearing reliability.

THA Series – Versatile Height-Adjustable Hangers

The THA series features U-shaped truss hangers with extended straps that can be bent or formed in the field, making it easy to adapt to unique truss heights. This design allows for maximum adjustability while providing a dense nailing pattern for secure attachment. Ideal for top-flange or face-mount applications, THA hangers simplify alignment and installation without the need for custom fabrication.

THAC Series – Concealed Flange for a Clean Finish

For projects where aesthetics matter, THAC hangers offer a concealed flange design. These hangers hide nailing surfaces while providing the same structural strength as traditional hangers. Perfect for exterior applications, the THAC series blends functional support with a polished, professional appearance.

THAR/L Series – Angled and Field-Adjustable

THAR and THAL hangers are designed with positive-angle nailing (PAN) and a 45° skew for right- or left-facing truss connections. Fully field-adjustable, these hangers are ideal for applications where angled loads or complex framing geometry require precise alignment. The combination of skewed design and adjustable height ensures consistent support at challenging angles.

Applications
  • Roof trusses for residential or commercial projects
  • Deck or pavilion framing with variable truss heights
  • Custom timber framing requiring precise alignment
  • Exterior truss installations where aesthetics are a priority
Installation Tips

Use the dense nail pattern in the extended straps to maximize fastening options. For THA hangers, bend the straps in the field as needed for height adjustments. Always ensure fasteners are placed according to Simpson Strong-Tie specifications to maintain load ratings. For skewed or angled hangers, confirm proper orientation (left vs. right) before fastening.
