4 X 6 POST CAP
$11.51
The Simpson Strong-Tie BC Galvanized Post Cap is an essential component designed for securely connecting 4×6 posts to wood decks. Crafted from 18-gauge steel and treated with a G90 galvanization process, it offers superior corrosion resistance, making it a reliable choice for outdoor applications. This post cap ensures a more robust connection than traditional angled nailing or screw fastening, significantly reducing the risk of post splitting and eliminating the need to nail into end grain, which can weaken the structure. While ideal for deck installations, it’s important to note that this product is not suitable for non top-supported applications, such as unbraced carports or fences, ensuring that your project remains both stable and durable.
