Simpson Strong-Tie DGF1.81/16 DGF Top-Flange Fire Wall Hanger for 1-3/4 in. x 16 in. Engineered Wood

The DGF is a top-flange hanger that connects floor trusses and joists to wood stud walls. The hanger features a v-shaped joist stop at the top whose unique design prevents the joist from seating too far back in the stirrup, creating space for two layers of 5/8" gypsum board (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.

This Simpson product is designed for construction, connector, fastening, anchoring, and structural applications where dependable performance, durability, and jobsite-ready installation matter.

Features

• The two-hour fire wall assembly rating applies to either 2x4 or 2x6 walls

• The DGF has been tested according to ASTM E814 and received F (flame) and T (temperature) ratings that can be found in Intertek Design No. SST/WPCF 120-01. These ratings verify that the hangers do not reduce the two-hour fire wall assembly rating.
• Joist size: 1-3/4 in. x 16 in.
• Seat width: 1-13/16 in.
• Made from 12-gauge steel
• Galvanized (G90) for extra corrosion resistance
