Simpson DGBF3.62/11.25 Fire Wall Hanger – G90 Galvanized, Made to Order Non-Returnable

The Simpson Strong-Tie DGF fire wall hangers are a great time saving solution for multi-level building construction. These hangers are easily installed on two-hour wood stud fire walls while framing. They feature enough space for two layers of 5/8″ gypsum board (drywall) to be slipped into place after the framing is complete. These hangers have been tested according to ASTM E814 and received F (flame) and T (temperature) ratings for use on one or both sides of the wall. These ratings verify that the hangers do not reduce the two-hour fire wall assembly rating. The DGF is a top-flange hanger that connects floor trusses and joists to wood stud walls. The hanger has a v-shaped joist stop at the top that prevents the joist from seating too far back in the stirrup, creating space for the drywall to be installed between the joist and the wall after framing. This economical hanger provides joist support for the majority of Type III construction projects.
