3-1/8″ BEAM, 6X POST SDS
$169.62
Engineered for strength and reliability, the CCQ™ Column Cap from Simpson Strong-Tie is designed to securely connect a 3-1/8 inch beam to a 6x post. This robust cap is constructed from durable 7-gauge steel, ensuring a long-lasting solution for structural applications, while its certified welds provide peace of mind regarding stability and load-bearing capacity. The innovative design incorporates SDS screws that offer a lower profile than traditional through bolts, enhancing both the aesthetics and efficiency of your project. Additionally, the cap features diamond holes for temporary fastening and has improved uplift loads to better withstand seismic or wind forces. Finished with a durable gray paint, this column cap not only performs exceptionally but also adds to the overall integrity of your construction efforts.
Description
The CCQ is designed to provide strong column-beam connections in wood construction. The seat of the column cap provides an additional surface area of bearing that extends beyond each side of the column. The extended bearing surface helps distribute the load from the beam and provide support for the connection. The CCQ uses Strong-Drive® SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws for fast installation and to attach to a greater net section area of the column than a bolt attachment normally entails.
