Koelner D-WB-613 Beam Hanger 60x130 mm

The Koelner D-WB-613 beam hanger is a professional-grade structural connector engineered for creating robust connections between timber beams or between timber and masonry surfaces. With dimensions of 60x130 mm, this steel bracket is designed to provide consistent load-bearing support for floor joists and structural beams in various construction environments. Its durable construction ensures long-term stability and structural integrity, serving as a reliable solution for both residential and commercial building projects.

Advantages

This beam hanger offers exceptional structural reliability due to its high-quality steel composition, which resists deformation under heavy loads. The design facilitates a straightforward installation process, significantly reducing labor time on construction sites while ensuring that connections remain secure and aligned. By providing a standardized mounting point, it helps maintain the precision of timber framing, contributing to the overall safety and durability of the building structure.

Suitable for

• Supporting floor joists in wooden frame construction
• Connecting timber beams to masonry or concrete walls
• General carpentry and structural framing tasks
• Renovation and extension projects involving wooden ceilings

When it may not be suitable

This product is not intended for use in highly corrosive environments, such as coastal areas or chemical processing facilities, unless additional protective coatings are applied. It is also not suitable for applications requiring flexible or adjustable joints, as this bracket is designed for rigid, fixed connections.

Key specifications

• Dimensions: 60x130 mm
• Material: High-quality structural steel
• Application: Timber-to-timber and timber-to-masonry
• Design: Rigid load-bearing bracket

How to use

To install the beam hanger, first ensure the supporting surface is level and structurally sound. Position the bracket against the support member and secure it using appropriate fasteners, such as structural nails or screws, through the pre-drilled holes. Once the hanger is firmly attached, place the timber beam into the bracket, ensuring a snug fit. Finally, secure the beam to the hanger using the designated nail or screw holes to prevent movement and ensure full load transfer.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the hanger dimensions match the width and depth of your timber beams
• Ensure the supporting material is capable of bearing the intended load
• Check local building codes for specific fastener requirements
• Confirm the quantity needed for your entire project layout

Usage recommendations

Always use the recommended number and type of fasteners specified for the bracket to ensure the full load-bearing capacity is achieved. Avoid modifying the bracket shape, as this may compromise its structural integrity.
