Pin Connection Column 96 Inch (243.8 cm)-CPA096
96 inch (243.8 cm) extension column with dual pin connection, 500 lbs weight capacity, and TAA compliance
The Chief CPA096 is a 96 inch (243.8 cm) extension column within the CPA series designed for professional floor-to-ceiling or ceiling-to-floor installations. This 7 ft (2.1 m) column utilizes a dual pin connection system where fasteners secure into factory pre-drilled holes to ensure a stable assembly. Unlike standard columns, the fasteners do not pass completely through the center, which allows for unobstructed cable pass-through. Installers can customize the column for specific site requirements by cutting it to length, re-drilling the surface, or threading it to 1.5" NPT. The outer surface features integrated grooves that serve as drill guides and provide a professional aesthetic. This TAA compliant component is rated for a weight capacity of 500 lbs (226.8 kg). It is compatible with all Chief Ceiling Plates, including the CPA261 and CPA262, as well as dedicated pin connection ceiling plates.
