Make every connection count with the Simpson Strong-Tie 18 Ga. Z-Max BCS Post Cap & Base - 3x Beam/6x Post, built for strength and seamless integration.

The BCS allows for the connection of (2) 2x's to a 4x post or (3) 2x's to a 6x post. Double shear nailing between beam and post gives added strength. Do not install bolts into pilot holes.
