The Simpson ECCU 5/8ROT End Column Cap with Uplift is an engineered connector designed for column-to-beam connections in end-of-beam applications where uplift resistance is required. The seat of the column cap provides additional bearing surface area that extends beyond one side of the column, helping to distribute the load from the beam while providing reliable support for the connection. This unit features straps rotated 90 deg. and utilizes a 5/8" bolt for secure fastening.
