Koelner D-WC-815 Internal Beam Hanger 80x150 mm

The Koelner D-WC-815 internal beam hanger is a high-quality structural connector engineered for reliable timber-to-timber connections. Measuring 80x150 mm, this component is specifically designed to support wooden beams within framing systems, providing a secure and stable foundation for various construction projects. Manufactured from durable galvanized steel, it offers excellent resistance to environmental factors, making it a dependable choice for both professional carpentry and general building applications.

Advantages

This beam hanger stands out due to its robust construction and high load-bearing capacity, which ensures the structural integrity of wooden frameworks. The galvanized coating provides essential protection against corrosion, extending the service life of the connection even in challenging conditions. Its internal design allows for a clean and aesthetic finish, as the hanger remains concealed within the structure. The precise dimensions ensure a snug fit for standard beam sizes, facilitating efficient installation and reducing the time required for assembly on site.

Suitable for

• Supporting primary and secondary wooden beams in floor and roof structures
• Professional carpentry and timber framing projects
• Construction of wooden decks, pergolas, and mezzanine levels
• Reinforcing structural connections in residential and commercial buildings

When it may not be suitable

This product is not intended for use with non-timber materials such as steel or concrete beams, as it is specifically engineered for wood-to-wood connections. It may also be unsuitable for applications requiring specialized fire-rated or high-load seismic certifications unless explicitly approved by a structural engineer for those specific conditions.

Key specifications

• Dimensions: 80x150 mm
• Material: Galvanized steel
• Type: Internal beam hanger
• Application: Timber-to-timber structural connections

How to use

To install the Koelner beam hanger, first ensure that the wooden beam is cut to the correct length and fits securely within the hanger. Position the hanger against the supporting member and secure it using appropriate structural nails or screws through the pre-drilled holes. Ensure that all fasteners are driven flush to the surface to maintain the stability of the connection. Once the hanger is firmly attached to the support, insert the beam into the hanger and secure it with additional fasteners as required by the structural design specifications.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the exact dimensions of your wooden beams to ensure compatibility with the 80x150 mm size
• Check the load-bearing requirements of your project against the technical specifications of the hanger
• Ensure you have the correct type and size of structural fasteners recommended for galvanized steel connectors
• Confirm that the internal design is appropriate for your specific framing layout

Usage recommendations

Always follow local building codes and structural engineering guidelines when installing timber connectors. Ensure that the supporting structure is capable of bearing the intended load and that all fasteners are installed according to the manufacturer's recommendations to maintain maximum structural safety.
