Simpson Strong-Tie CPS7 – Composite Plastic Standoff for 8×8 Product Details 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 is load rated and features either a square or a rectangle shape depending upon post dimensions. Key Features Provides code-required 1″ standoff Multiple sizes to support a variety of projects Black finish for a custom look Installation Post: Drill a 3/4″-diameter hole 10″ into the center of the post. Clean out sawdust. Fill hole halfway with Simpson Strong-Tie SET-³G epoxy anchoring adhesive. Insert all-thread rod while twisting the rod and allow the epoxy to set and cure. Secure standoff to post using four ⁰.¹⁴⁸” x ³” nails. Concrete: Drill a ³/⁴”-diameter hole per anchor design (see table footnote ²). Clean out dust. Fill hole halfway with Simpson Strong-Tie SET-³G epoxy anchoring adhesive. Insert post subassembly into hole and allow the epoxy to set and cure. Post bases do not provide adequate resistance to prevent members from rotating about the base and therefore are not recommended for non-top-supported installations (such as fences or unbraced carports).
