Simpson One-Piece Post Caps
One-piece post caps help keep beams securely attached to posts, offering strong support against sideways movement and lifting in wood construction. Made from sturdy steel, these connectors come in different types for both light and heavy-duty projects. We offer post caps with flanges on opposite sides for extra stability, and ones with flanges in line to fit various post sizes. We also have special post caps designed for the ends of posts.
