The Simpson Strong-Tie CPT66Z concealed 6 x 6 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. Each base includes (3) 1/2" x 4-3/4" mechanical galvanized dowels. If 1/2" machine bolts are substituted it is recommended they are hot dipped galvanized.
- The CPT66Z is tested and load-rated for uplift, download and lateral load.
- Simpson Strong-Tie saves installers time by providing all the necessary components in one box to make the connection.
- The CPT66Z anchorage can either be cast-in-place or retrofitted with adhesive or mechanical anchors.
- Post bases do not provide adequate resistance to prevent members from rotating about the base and therefore are not recommended for non-braced, or non-top-supported installations.

ZMax® Galvanized Coating Information
ZMax® Coating is a thicker coating (galvanized per ASTM A653 with a G185 coating) than the standard hot-dip galvanized coating (galvanized per ASTM A653 with a G90 coating). This thicker coating is available on select Simpson Strong-Tie connectors. Due to this increased galvanized thickness these connectors would be expected to have a longer service life than standard galvanized connectors.
Level of Corrosion Resistance: Medium
