RICON S Beam Hanger Demo – Mass Timber Connector for Fast, Concealed Beam Joinery

In this demo, we show how the RICON S Beam Hanger and Mass Timber Connector quickly and securely joins two beams together. Featuring a dovetail-style, self-tightening design, the RICON S allows beams to slide into place with just 35mm (1 1/2″) of travel — creating a strong, gap-free joint in seconds.

Made of galvanized steel, the RICON S is a pre-engineered connector system approved under ICC ESR-4300. It installs easily with self-tapping screws and can be mounted fully concealed or visible, making it ideal for architectural timber projects where aesthetics matter.
