Description

Simpson Strong-Tie PB66HDG – 6 X 6 Post Base Hdg

The PB post base provides a connection between a post (or column) for decks, patio covers and other top-supported structures. Available with standard or ZMAX galvanization, which offers extra corrosion resistance for outdoor or treated-wood applications.

Material

• 12 gauge

Finish

• Galvanized. Some products available in ZMAX or HDG coating. See Corrosion Information.

Installation

• Use all specified fasteners; see General Notes.
• Install either nails or bolts.
• 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 (such as fences or unbraced carports).
• Holes are provided for installation with either 0.162″ x 3 1/2″ nails or 1/2″ bolts for PB66 and PB66R; all other models use 0.162″ x 3 1/2″ nails only. A 2″ minimum sidecover is required to obtain the full load.
