Simpson CCQ7.1-6SDS2.5 Column Cap w/SDS Screws - Gray Paint
Description:
Description:
Simpson Strong-Tie CCQ Column caps provide a high-capacity connection for column-beam combinations. This design uses Simpson Strong-Tie Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws to provide faster installation and provides a greater net section area of the column compared to bolts. The SDS screws provide for a lower profile compared to standard through bolts. The Strong-Tie CCQ7.1-6SDS2.5 post base features a Gray Paint finish for added corrosion resistance and requires the use of hot-dip galvanized fasteners which meet the specifications of ASTM A153.
Installation:- Install 1/4"x2 1/2" Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws, which are provided with the column cap. (Lag screws will not achieve the same load.)
- CCOQ and ECCOQ column cap only (no straps) may be ordered for field-welding to pipe or other columns. Dimensions are same as CCQ and ECCQ.
- For rough-cut lumber sizes, provide dimensions. An optional W2 dimension may be specified with any column size given. (Note that the W2 dimension on straps rotated 90° is limited by the W1 dimension.)
NOTE: The correct fasteners installed in the correct position must be used to achieve published load values

I’ve used these a few times for opening living areas in houses. They work great and do the job. Only things I didn’t like are that the inside welds create a smaller area for your standard 2x material so you end up ripping down boards and the other draw back is the first board you install needs to be fastened from the backside so doing remodels it take some extra work to make that work. All in all they are of superior quality and would recommend them to anyone
