Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the purpose of a bearing plate, and how does it differ from a standard cut washer?
- Bearing plates give greater bearing surface than standard cut washers. They are designed to help strengthen and distribute the load at critical connections, making them a more effective solution where concentrated compressive forces need to be spread over a larger area.
- Where are these bearing plates typically used?
- Bearing plates are typically used on foundation anchor bolts in place of cut washers, providing a more robust connection at these critical structural points.
- Why is the hot-dip galvanized (HDG) coating important?
- Hot-dip galvanization (HDG) offers extra corrosion resistance for exterior and treated-wood applications. This makes the BP 5/8-3HDG well suited for environments where moisture exposure or contact with treated lumber could accelerate corrosion on uncoated hardware.
- What size bolt is this bearing plate designed to accommodate?
- This bearing plate is specifically designed for a 5/8 in. bolt diameter. Its 3 in. x 3 in. footprint and 3-gauge steel construction ensure strong, reliable load distribution around that bolt size.
