2-3X6 POST CAP
$15.31
Engineered for superior strength and durability, this post cap from Simpson Strong-Tie is crafted from 18-gauge steel and galvanized to G90 standards, ensuring exceptional corrosion resistance. It facilitates a reliable connection between a post and wood deck, significantly outperforming traditional methods like angled nailing or screw fastening. This design not only decreases the likelihood of post splitting but also eliminates the need to nail into the end grain, making it an ideal choice for secure decking applications. However, it is important to note that this product is not suitable for non top-supported installations, such as fences or unbraced carports.
Description
Post and column bases secure the bottom of posts or columns to concrete and are perfect for decks or patio covers. Models are available for attaching to existing hardened concrete, wet concrete, as well as wood. The BCS allows for the connection of 2-2xs to a 4x post or 3-2xs to a 6x post. Double-shear nailing between beam and post gives added strength.
