Hello Stephen, this is Stacy with Simpson Strong-Tie. We are sorry to hear the hanger was too short for your application. The JB26 has a height of 5 3/8" meant for 2x6 solid sawn joist sizes. If you would like to discuss this further please call us at (800) 999-5099. We look forward to hearing from you. SimpsonStrongTie

Be Careful! They are 1/4 too short
I bought a box of these hangers for 2 x 6 joists. Tried the first one and it was 1/4 too high. The joist is 1/4 inch higher than the support beam. The plywood wood not lay flat. The solution was to return the entire box for a full refund. Thank you Home Depot. I bought another joist hanger without the tabs and manually adjusted so that all was flat. The vendor NEEDS to update their description to make this clear.

    Sits 2x 1/4” too high. Waste of money.
    Would be great if they made a product that matched the dimension of nominal wood without notching.

    Hi Dans, this is Stacy from Simpson Strong-Tie. Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to see your experience with our JB Junior Bent Hanger did not meet your expectations. Top flange hangers are not fabricated to be the same height as the joists that are used in them to allow for roof/floor framing to be applied on top of the hangers We value our customers and are committed to providing exceptional products and service. To see how we can best resolve any problems, please reach out to our Customer Service team by calling 800-999-5099.​ SimpsonStrongTie
      Still haven’t corrected the issue.
      They are sized incorrectly causing the 2x6 to be almost 1/4” above the runner. Way too much more in cost to have not work like they should, returning them tomorrow.

      Hellu Mb21, This is Colin from Simpson Strong-Tie. Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to see your experience with our interior grade JB26 did not meet your expectations. The stirrup for this top flange hanger measurers 1-9/16" Wide and from the bottom of the seat to the top bend line the Height is 5-3/8". Above the bend there are " strength embossments" so that a kiln dried 2x6 joist (1-1/2"x 5-1/2" should rise about an 1/8" of an inch above the bend line and approximately flush with the top of the embossments. But I understand this was not your result. We value our customers and are committed to providing exceptional products and service. To see how we can best resolve any problems, please reach out to our Customer Service team by calling 800-999-5099.​ SimpsonStrongTie

        I really like joist hangers. This design is really one of the better ones. They have been in the rain for the past 2 months and no rust.

        Great concept, poor execution
        Agree with other reviewers. Joist is too not flush, too high. Had to return. It would work great if they added about 1/4" top to bottom.

          I used these last year and they were great. These made my floor joist1/4 inch higher than my walls. I returned rather than have to notch each 2x6 to fit.

          They work great. The only complaint is that they dont hang a 2x6 totally flush with the top of the hanger. The lumber sticks up a good half inch and needs notched if you want flush.

            Great product
            Hangers worked great! Wish they had this size at the store but shipping to store was quick and free.
