Description
The CPS is a composite plastic standoff base designed for use both indoors and outdoors. The CPS attaches to the bottom of the solid wood column and to concrete with threaded rod and epoxy. The CPS series is load rated and available in shapes to match a variety of column sizes.
Post and column bases secure the bottom of posts or columns to concrete and are ideal for decks, fences, patio covers, and outdoor framing. Options exist for anchoring to hardened concrete, wet concrete, or wood surfaces, making the CPS series a versatile installation solution. By lifting the post off the concrete surface, the CPS5 keeps water from wicking into the wood, increasing structural durability and extending service life.
Simpson Strong Tie connectors, bases, and standoff solutions are designed to strengthen joints, improve alignment, and provide consistent, reliable load transfer across residential and light commercial construction. Composite and ZMAX coated options deliver enhanced corrosion protection where moisture is present.
