Product Description
The Simpson OCC66 Ornamental Column Cap is a heavy-duty, decorative structural connector engineered to provide a high-capacity connection for interior column-and-beam combinations. Designed as part of Simpson Strong-Tie's Indoor Architectural Products Rustic Collection, this 6 x 6 column cap features distinctive decorative notched edges that make it an attractive choice for exposed-connector applications where both strength and aesthetics matter. The black powder-coat finish adds a refined, finished appearance to any interior timber frame or post-and-beam installation. By distributing load efficiently from the beam down to the column, the OCC66 helps establish a continuous, reliable load path throughout the structure.
