Simpson Strong-tie Lce4z Post Cap, Z-max Steel, 4x

The Simpson Strong-Tie LCE4Z is a Z-Max galvanized steel post cap designed to connect 4x wood members at right angles. This universal connector eliminates the need for nailing into end grain, providing a more reliable structural connection. Always installed in pairs, the LCE4Z offers a secure fit even when the post end is cut at an angle.

The LCE4Z's universal design means a single cap works for both left and right applications, simplifying installation and eliminating the need to stock matching pairs of different orientations. The Z-Max galvanized steel construction delivers durability for outdoor and structural applications.
