(10 Count) Simpson Strong-Tie BC6Z 6 x Post Cap ZMAX

The BC post cap is designed to connect a beam to a post. The 18 ga material of this post cap makes it ideal for light-duty connections. The BC provides uplift and lateral resistance and includes sizes for both nominal and rough lumber.

Simpson Strong Tie BC6Z ZMAX Galvanized 18-Gauge 6-Inch Post Cap/Base

The BC series offers dual purpose post cap/base for light cap or base connections. Do not install bolts into pilot holes. Install with 16D Common Nails or 16D x 2-1/2″ Joist hanger nails. Post bases do not provide adequate resistance to prevent members from rotating about the base and are not recommended for non top-supported installations (such as fences or unbraced carports). 18-gauge galvanized steel. Some sizes available in ZMax coating.
