Product Description
The Simpson CCQ4.62-4.62HDG is a Triple 2x Beam to Triple 2x Post column cap engineered to deliver strong, reliable 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, helping distribute the load from the beam and providing critical support for the connection. Utilizing Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws, this column cap enables fast installation while attaching to a greater net section area of the column than a standard bolt attachment - all in a lower-profile assembly. Finished in Hot Dip Galvanized (HDG) coating for lasting corrosion resistance, this connector is built to perform in demanding structural environments.
Key Features
- Extended Bearing Surface: The seat of the column cap extends beyond each side of the column to help distribute beam loads and support the connection.
- SDS Screw Installation: Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws provide a lower profile than standard through bolts and attach to a greater net section area of the column.
- Certified Welds: Certified welds for confidence in strength and loading.
- Enhanced Uplift Loads: Uplift loads have been increased for earthquake or wind loading.
- Diamond Holes: Diamond holes allow for temporary fastening during installation.
- Hot Dip Galvanized Finish: Provides corrosion protection suited for exposed and treated-lumber applications.
- Fast Installation: SDS screws are included with the column cap for straightforward field installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What size beams and posts is this column cap designed to fit?
- The CCQ4.62-4.62HDG is engineered specifically for Triple 2x beam to Triple 2x post connections, making it suitable for wood construction applications where both the column and beam are built up from triple 2x lumber members.
- What type of fasteners are used with this column cap, and are they included?
- This column cap is installed using Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws, which are included with the column cap. These screws provide a lower profile than standard through bolts and attach to a greater net section area of the column, enabling fast and strong installation.
- What finish does the CCQ4.62-4.62HDG have, and is it suitable for treated lumber?
- This column cap features a Hot Dip Galvanized (HDG) finish, which provides corrosion resistance suited for exposed and treated-lumber applications, making it appropriate for demanding structural environments where moisture or chemical exposure may be a concern.
- Does this column cap offer any provisions for easier installation or temporary fastening?
- Yes, the CCQ4.62-4.62HDG includes diamond holes that allow for temporary fastening during installation, helping to hold the connector in place while final fasteners are driven. The extended bearing seat also helps support the connection during assembly.
