The CJT is a concealed connector. It can be installed three ways: with no routing of header/post or beam; a routed header/post, or a routed beam.

Material: 12 gauge

Finish: Galvanized

Installation:

Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes.
The CJT Pack is supplied with all pins and screws required. Screws require a hex head driver.
Router end of beam for screw heads for flush installation.
The joist/beam may be sloped to 45° with full table loads.
To provide maximum beam width for use with short pins, center in beam.
To order: specify short or long pins (see footnote #1 below).

Options: See Technical Bulletin T-CJT.

Warning:
This connector requires special attention to ensure correct installation. The beam must be installed perpendicular to the support member. The connection's components may be damaged if the beam is rotated from its opposite end during or after installation. Damaged components may not be noticeable and may reduce the connector's load carrying capacity.
