Simpson Strong-Tie BC BC60Z Post Base, 6 x 6 in Post, 18 ga Gauge, Steel, ZMAX

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. Features: - 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
