Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie CC44PC is a black powder-coated column cap engineered to deliver a strong, reliable column-to-beam connection in wood construction projects. Designed for 4x post and 4x beam configurations, this connector features an extended seat that provides additional bearing surface area beyond each side of the column, effectively distributing load from the beam while adding support and stability to the overall connection. As part of Simpson Strong-Tie's Classic Collection, the CC44PC combines structural performance with architectural appeal - its modern smooth edges, clean lines, and sleek black powder-coat finish make it an ideal choice for applications where structural connectors remain visible. Whether used in residential or commercial wood framing, the CC44PC brings both form and function to every project.
