Product Description
The Simpson AC4RZ AC ZMAX Adjustable Post Cap for 4x Rough by Simpson Strong-Tie is a heavy-duty structural connector designed to provide a positive, secure connection between a beam and the top of a post.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What lumber size is the AC4RZ designed for?
- The AC4RZ is specifically designed for use with 4x rough lumber, providing a secure and properly sized connection between the post and beam.
