About This Product

The BC post-base is designed to connect a post to a wood supporting member. The 18 ga material of this post-base makes it ideal for light-duty connections. The BC provides uplift and lateral resistance and includes sizes for both nominal and rough lumber.

Highlights

• Provides a positive connection for a post to a wood deck
• Stronger than angled nailing or screw fastening
• Reduces the chance of the post splitting and eliminates nailing into end grain
• Not recommended for non top-supported installations (such as fences or unbraced carports)
• ZMAX galvanization offers extra corrosion resistance for exterior and treated wood applications
• Opposing nail pattern to reduce wood splitting
• Attains full allowable load using either common nail or pneumatic nail sizes
