Frequently Asked Questions
- What size post does the APB1010R fit?
- The APB1010R is designed specifically for a rough cut 10x10 post - meaning the post must have an actual measured dimension of 10 in. x 10 in. It is not compatible with nominal 10x10 lumber, which typically measures 9-1/2 in. x 9-1/2 in. For nominal-sized posts, see the APB1010.
- How does the 1 in. standoff help protect the post?
- The built-in 1 in. standoff elevates the post end above the concrete surface, reducing direct contact with moisture that can accumulate at the base. This helps prevent post-end rot and extends the service life of the structure.
- Is the APB1010R suitable for high-wind or seismic regions?
- Yes. The APB1010R is designed to meet stringent building codes for seismic or high-wind events, making it appropriate for use in areas with elevated structural load requirements.
- What finish does the APB1010R have, and is it suitable for exterior use?
- The APB1010R features ZMAX galvanization with a black powder-coat finish. ZMAX galvanization offers extra corrosion resistance for exterior and treated-wood applications, and the black powder coat on the straps adds a decorative look suited for visible outdoor installations such as pergolas and patio covers.

Note: This connector is designed for Rough Cut lumber, NOT nominal lumber (most common). This will only fit a post that measures an actual 10 in. x 10 in. If you have a nominal post measuring 9-1/2 in. x 9-1/2 in., you will need the Ornamental Post Base.
