The new CBTZ Concealed Beam Tie combines structural strength with invisibility for applications that call for concealed joinery rather than standard beam-to-post connections. Whether you’re designing for a custom indoor or outdoor living space, the tubular shape of the CBTZ allows an easy-to-install beam-to-post connection using common tools. The CBTZ is designed to connect beams and posts of a variety of sizes. The CBT4Z fits a minimum 6×6 post and 6×8 beam using six dowel pins (included).

This kit comes with 1 CBT4Z concealed beam tie, 6 steel dowel pins, 1 template, and installation instructions
