What is the GIGANT Installation Guide and who is it for?
This guide supports field installers, site foremen, and fabrication teams working with MTC Solutions’ GIGANT concealed beam hanger systems. It provides all necessary installation steps, fastener charts, and tool recommendations to complete your install successfully.
The layout is simplified for quick referencing with a black-and-white format – ideal for clipboards and printouts.
What hardware and tools do I need to install a GIGANT?
Each GIGANT connector set includes two identical steel connector plates and a set of GIGANT SK screws. For precise installation, MTC recommends:
- A low-RPM, high-torque drill with a feathering trigger for enhanced speed control.
- Star bits matched to GIGANT SK screws.
