Concealed Post Base for 6×6 Post

The CPTZ concealed post base provides a clean, concealed look while providing a 1″ standoff height above concrete. The 1″ standoff reduces the potential for decay at the post end and satisfies code requirements for posts that are exposed to weather, water splash or in basements. It is part of a system of concealed connectors that includes the CBTZ and CJT.

• The CPTZ is tested and load rated for uplift, download and lateral load.
• Simpson Strong-Tie saves installers time by providing all the necessary components to make the post connection in one box (anchors not included).
• There are two anchorage solutions available. See tables for information.
• Solutions have been calculated per ACI 318 to determine their allowable load in different concrete configurations.
