COLUMN CAP W/SCREWS
$126.56
This robust column cap from Simpson Strong-Tie is engineered for exceptional strength and reliability, making it an ideal choice for various structural applications. Crafted from durable 7-gauge steel, it features certified welds that ensure confidence in both strength and load-bearing capacity. Designed specifically to accommodate a nominal beam width of 6 inches and a post width of 7-1/8 inches, the cap includes diamond holes for temporary fastening, facilitating easy and efficient installation. The inclusion of Strong-Drive® SDS screws allows for a lower profile than traditional through bolts, enhancing the overall aesthetic while maximizing structural integrity against uplift loads, such as those experienced during earthquakes or high winds. Finished with a protective gray paint, this column cap exemplifies quality and durability in any construction project.
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.
