Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie ECC44PC is a black powder-coat end column cap engineered to deliver strong, reliable column-to-beam connections in end-of-beam applications throughout wood construction. Constructed from heavy-duty 7-gauge steel, this end column cap features an extended seat that provides additional bearing surface area beyond one side of the column, effectively distributing load from the beam while delivering critical support at the connection point. The ECC44PC is finished in a durable black powder-coat for a clean, finished appearance suited to both structural and aesthetic applications.
