Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie CC86ROT is a heavy-duty bolted column cap engineered to deliver reliable column-to-beam connections in structural wood construction. Featuring rotated beam straps, this cap is designed for use with a 6x8 post and an 8x beam, providing an extended bearing seat that distributes load effectively across the connection. Finished in Simpson Strong-Tie gray paint and manufactured in the United States, the CC86ROT is built to perform in demanding structural applications where both strength and code compliance are essential.
Key Features
- Rotated Beam Straps: Beam straps are rotated 90 deg. to accommodate specific framing configurations and optimize load transfer.
- Certified Welds: Certified welds provide confidence in strength and loading performance throughout the connection.
- Increased Uplift Loads: Uplift load capacity is increased to meet the demands of earthquake or wind loading conditions.
- NDS-Compliant Bolt Spacing: Bolt spacing meets NDS code requirements to ensure optimal structural performance.
- Diamond Holes: Diamond holes are included to provide temporary fastening during installation.
- Extended Bearing Seat: The seat of the column cap provides additional bearing surface area that extends beyond each side of the column, helping to distribute the load from the beam and support the connection.
- Simpson Strong-Tie Gray Paint Finish: Provides a consistent, durable finish for interior structural applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What post and beam sizes is the CC86ROT designed to accommodate?
- The CC86ROT is designed for use with a 6x post and an 8x beam, making it suitable for heavy-duty structural wood framing applications where those specific lumber dimensions are used.
- What does "rotated" mean in the context of this column cap?
- The term "rotated" refers to the beam straps being oriented 90 deg. from a standard position. This rotation is intended to accommodate specific framing configurations and to optimize load transfer between the beam and post connection.
- Is the CC86ROT suitable for use in areas subject to high wind or seismic activity?
- Yes. The CC86ROT features increased uplift load capacity, which is specifically intended to meet the demands of earthquake or wind loading conditions, making it appropriate for use in such structural applications.
- Does the CC86ROT meet recognized structural code requirements for bolt spacing?
- Yes. The CC86ROT is designed with NDS-compliant bolt spacing, meaning the bolt layout meets the requirements of the National Design Specification (NDS) to ensure optimal structural performance in the connection.
