4X BEAM, 4X POST SDS RETAIL
$160.75
Engineered for strength and reliability, the Simpson Strong-Tie ECCQ End Column Cap is designed to support 4x beams and 4x posts, ensuring robust connections in structural applications. Constructed from durable 7-gauge steel, it features certified welds that instill confidence in its loading capacity, making it an ideal choice for projects requiring enhanced uplift support in the face of wind or seismic activity. The innovative design includes diamond holes that facilitate temporary fastening, while the Strong-Drive® SDS screws contribute to a lower profile compared to traditional through bolts, streamlining installation and improving aesthetics. Finished with a protective gray paint, this column cap not only meets rigorous strength standards but also withstands the elements, ensuring long-lasting performance.
Description
The ECCQ is designed to provide strong column-beam connections in end-of-beam applications in wood construction. The seat of the column cap provides an additional surface area of bearing that extends beyond the side of the column. The extended bearing surface helps distribute the load from the beam and provide support for the connection. The ECCQ 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.
