About This Product

The CPTZ post base incorporates a knife plate with a standoff base. It achieves a clean, concealed look while providing a 1-in standoff height above concrete. The CPTZ is installed with 1/2-in diameter galvanized pins (supplied).

Highlights

  • The 1-in standoff height is code-required when supporting permanent structures that are exposed to weather or water splash, or in basements
  • The standoff reduces the potential for decay at post or column ends
  • The anchorage for the CPTZ can be either cast-in-place or retrofit with adhesive or mechanical anchors
  • Nominal post size: 6x6
  • Base: 12-gauge; knife plate: 10-gauge
  • ZMAX galvanization offers extra corrosion resistance for exterior and treated-wood applications
  • Install with 1/2 in. anchor bolts and supplied dowels

Q:Can this base be attached to the concrete with 3/8 tapcon screws providing correct drill size and depth?

1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  Hi Alan, no, the CPTZ installs with 1/2" diameter anchor into concrete, 3/8" is not acceptable. If you need further assistance, please contact the Simpson Strong-Tie Customer Service team at 800-999-5099. We look forward to hearing from you.-Stacy

    Answer This Question

    A:  Hi Seth, thank you for your message. This is Ricardo with Simpson Strong-Tie. I believe you are referring to the holes drilled for the CPTZ pins, you certainly can use wood fillers to cover those pin holes.

          Tough to install, but very much worth the effort
          It's IMPORTANT to use a drill guide or some kind of aid to drill the pin holes perpendicular to the surface of the post. I used a cheapo drill guide from Milescraft (1318). It's not the most precise tool, but it did the trick for me. I also used my track saw to cut the 6-1/2 inch deep slot and finished it with a Japanese saw. It took me almost four hours to install just one post base, but once I figured how to tackle it, the other 3 took me about 1 hour per. All in all, this is a great product and I will recommend it to anyone who has the patience to learn how to property install it. The result will not disappoint.

            Works great. Second project I have used these on. This one was to install hand rail posts to large stone steps to a 1755 house.

              Strength of product is impressive - pleased with end result. My only complaint is that when drilling into concrete and placing/tightening anchors the plate can very easily rotate off flush = post not flush. Also difficult to drill perfectly straight holes for pins, but still installed fine despite that
