With no welds the Speed Pro Masonry Hanger is the only single piece masonry joist hanger with a straight top flange. It also has the key advantage that any standard Speed Pro Masonry hanger can be transformed into a hook over from stock. No special tools or rivets required. Just inset the Lock Plate at 90 degrees, rotate and tap into place. The Speed Pro Masonry Joist Hanger is a 2.4mm thick Welded Masonry Joist Hanger for building into walls with a minimum crushing strength of 3.5N/mm2. Hangers can also be fixed to steel beams using appropriate fixings.

Application
The back plate of the hanger should lie flat against the vertical masonry support. The masonry flange should have a minimum of 3 courses (675mm masonry) above and both supporting and above masonry should be allowed to mature before any load is applied. Joist should be square cut and sit tight to the back of the hanger- the maximum gap permitted is 6mm. Nail the side flanges with 30 x 3.75mm galvanised square twist nails or equivalent and use Heavy Duty Restraint Straps to provide lateral Restraint. The masonry flange should always be securely fixed or adequately embedded and should never be placed in dry slots.
