Product Details

Simpson Strong-Tie connectors make projects easier to build while making them stronger and safer. They are engineered and tested to perform and are manufactured to the highest quality standards. The DJT14Z deck joist tie is designed to attach 2x deck joists to the side of 4x or larger support posts, and it can be installed with either nails or bolts.
  • Connects a 2x member (typically a beam) to the side of the post
  • Suitable for nominal 2x4 minimum cross member and nominal 4x4 minimum post
  • Stronger than nails or screws, easier than through-bolting
  • Made from 14-gauge steel
  • ZMAX galvanization offers extra corrosion resistance for exterior and treated-wood applications
  • Install with 16d common nails or #10 x 2-1/2 in. Strong-Drive SD screws or 5/8 in. Dia machine bolts

    A:  Hi Chrisd, This is McKenzie from Simpson Strongtie. We don't have any testing that supports the DJT in a splice application. Thank you, have a great day.

      Q:What do I use to attach 2x8 rim joist to top of 4x4 post on corner of deck

        A:  Hello Bird, this is McKenzie with Simpson Strong-Tie. Your connector selection depends on orientation and load resistance requirements. If the rim joist is attached to the side of the post, a DJT could be an option. If the rim joist is sitting on top of the post, we do not have a specific post cap for a single 2x member. In this case if the beam is flush to the outside of the post an 'L' bracket or LCE/AC/LPC could be options.

                This was used to secure fall boards in a garage loft area in a way that they could be removed if necessary. Worked beautifully for this repurposed use.
