COLUMN CAP
$96.00
Designed for use with 5.25 inch LVL, PSL, and LSL beams, this column cap from Simpson Strong-Tie is constructed from durable 7-gauge galvanized steel, ensuring excellent corrosion resistance. It is specifically sized to provide adequate bearing length for larger girder reactions, making it a critical component for effective load transfer in structural applications. Self-tapping screws are included for easy installation, enhancing its practicality for both solid sawn lumber and engineered wood products. However, it’s important to note the warning regarding potential exposure to wood dust, a recognized carcinogen in California, emphasizing the need for safety while using this robust structural accessory.
Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie® CCOS steel-column cap provides a high-capacity connection for column-to-beam combinations. This design without the column straps was created specifically for field welding to a steel column. For faster installation, the CCOS requires that self-tapping screws (included) be used to attach the column cap to the column cap plate.
