Product description

The BCS is designed to connect a multi-ply member beam to a post. The dimensions of this post cap accommodate the narrower width of multiple 2X members on top of the post. The BCS provides both lateral and uplift support and features double-shear nailing that distributes the load through two points for optimal strength.

Made of steel with a zmax finish, with fastener type Nail, nail diameter 0.162 in, post/joist size 2 to 2 x 4 in.

  • Provides a positive connection for a post to a wood deck
  • Stronger than angled nailing or screw fastening
  • Reduces the chance of the post splitting and eliminates nailing into end grain
  • Not recommended for non top-supported installations (such as fences or unbraced carports)
  • ZMAX® galvanization offers extra corrosion resistance for exterior and treated-wood applications
  • Opposing flanges provide increased lateral resistance
  • Sized specifically for multi-2X widths
  • Do not install bolts into pilot holes
  • Install dome nails on beam; drive nails at an angle through the beam into the post below to achieve the table loads
