Product Overview
BC460 Post Base
The BC post base is designed to connect a post to a wood supporting member. The 18-gauge 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.
Key Features
Opposing nail pattern to reduce wood splitting
Attains full allowable load using either common nail or pneumatic nail sizes
Light-gauge material designed for light-duty applications
Material:18 gauge
Finish: Galvanized. Some products available in ZMAX® coating or stainless steel. See Corrosion Information.
Installation
Use all specified fasteners; see General Notes
Do not install bolts into pilot holes
BC post bases do not provide adequate resistance to prevent members from rotating about the base and therefore are not recommended for non-top-supported installations
