Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie CC76 Column Cap is engineered to deliver strong, reliable column-to-beam connections in wood construction applications. Designed specifically for a 6-3/4 in. beam width and a nominal 6x post, the CC76 features a generously proportioned seat that extends beyond each side of the column, providing additional bearing surface area. This extended seat works to distribute load from the beam evenly, improving the integrity and performance of the structural connection. Manufactured from heavy-duty 3-gauge steel in the United States and finished in Simpson Strong-Tie gray paint, the CC76 is built to perform in demanding structural environments, including those subject to earthquake and high-wind loading conditions.
Key Features
- Certified Welds: Weld-certified construction provides confidence in strength and load-carrying capacity.
- Enhanced Uplift Resistance: Uplift loads are increased to meet the demands of earthquake and wind loading scenarios.
- NDS-Compliant Bolt Spacing: Bolt hole spacing is designed to meet National Design Specification (NDS) code requirements for optimal structural performance.
- Diamond Holes: Integrated diamond holes allow for temporary fastening during installation, improving ease of alignment.
- Extended Bearing Seat: The seat of the column cap extends beyond each side of the column to distribute beam load effectively.
- Heavy-Gauge Steel Construction: Fabricated from 3-gauge steel for exceptional strength and durability.
- Gray Paint Finish: Factory-applied Simpson Strong-Tie gray paint finish provides a clean, professional appearance.
- Made in the USA: Domestically manufactured for consistent quality and performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What beam width and post size is the CC76 designed to fit?
- The CC76 is designed for use with a 6-3/4 in. beam width and a nominal 6x post size, making it suitable for heavy timber framing applications requiring a secure column-to-beam connection.
- What fasteners are required to install the CC76?
- The CC76 is installed with six 3/4 in. diameter bolts. The bolt spacing is designed to meet National Design Specification (NDS) code requirements for optimal structural performance.
- What material and finish is the CC76 made from?
- The CC76 is fabricated from heavy-duty 3-gauge steel and finished in Simpson Strong-Tie gray paint, providing durability in demanding structural environments.
- Is the CC76 suitable for use in high-wind or earthquake-prone areas?
- Yes. The CC76 features certified welds and increased uplift load capacity, making it appropriate for structural connections in areas subject to earthquake or high-wind loading conditions. The extended bearing seat also helps distribute beam load evenly, further supporting connection integrity under these demands.
