The Simpson ECCLRQMD3.62G-KT ECCLQMD L-Shape Embedded Column Cap is a heavy-duty connector engineered for raised pier foundations and structural connections where heavy timbers or beams bear on concrete or concrete block columns. Built from 7 ga. steel with a hot-dip galvanized finish, this right-hand, L-shape cap incorporates an additional seat to support a third member at the corner connection - making it a purpose-built solution for corner-of-structure applications such as a perimeter deck joist or beam. Unique SSTB-style anchor bolts and a heavy-gauge beam seat work together to deliver the high uplift and lateral resistance needed to help resist high-wind events, while the included MSTQM straps and screws complete the connection from the embedded column cap to the wall framing.

Key Features

• ECCLQMD corner-seat design with additional third-member support - lets you run a deck joist or beam off the corner of the structure without requiring a separate connector, streamlining your corner-of-structure assembly.
• Right-direction (skewed right) orientation - confirms correct hand for your layout right away, with the ECCLLQMD available when a left-direction orientation is required instead.
• Heavy-gauge 7 ga. steel construction with SSTB-style anchor bolts - delivers the high uplift and lateral resistance required to help resist high-wind events at pier foundation connections.
• Hot-dip galvanized (HDG) coating - provides extra corrosion resistance that stands up to exterior environments and direct contact with treated wood, keeping the connection protected over the long term.
• Complete kit including MSTQM straps and screws - supplies every component needed to make the full connection from the embedded column cap to the wall framing, reducing trips to source additional hardware.
• Designed and made in the United States by Simpson - manufactured to consistent quality standards for structural connector applications.

Why This Product

• Built specifically for raised pier and concrete column foundations - the ECCLQMD series is purpose-designed for applications where heavy timbers or beams rest on concrete or concrete block columns, so the connector geometry and load path are matched to the actual demands of pier foundation construction.
• Handles corner connections that standard column caps cannot - the additional seat supporting a third member means this cap accommodates a deck joist or perimeter beam at the corner in a single connector, eliminating the need for workaround assemblies at a structurally critical point.
• Hot-dip galvanized finish for demanding exterior and treated-wood environments - HDG goes well beyond standard coating processes, making this cap a reliable long-term choice for exposed pier foundation connections and applications where corrosion resistance is a real performance requirement, not just a preference.
• Arrives as a ready-to-install kit - the inclusion of MSTQM straps and screws configured to provide high uplift design values means the complete connection system is in one package, saving time coordinating compatible hardware on the job site.
