Product Description
The Simpson BP 3/4 Bearing Plate from Simpson is built to deliver a greater bearing surface than standard cut washers, helping to strengthen and distribute load at critical structural connections. Designed for use on foundation anchor bolts in place of cut washers, this anchor bolt bearing plate transfers compressive forces across a wider contact area, making it a practical upgrade wherever reliable load distribution matters at the base of a structure.
Key Features
- 3/4 in. bolt diameter compatibility - fits standard 3/4 in. foundation anchor bolts for a secure, purpose-matched connection
- 2-3/4 in. x 2-3/4 in. plate footprint - wider surface area spreads load more effectively than a standard cut washer, reducing concentrated stress at the connection point
- 5/16 in. steel construction - substantial plate thickness provides the structural rigidity needed to handle compressive forces at load-bearing anchor bolt locations
- Uncoated steel material - solid steel construction delivers the strength required for demanding foundation connection applications
Why This Product
- More effective load distribution than cut washers - the larger 2-3/4 in. x 2-3/4 in. bearing surface spreads anchor bolt loads over a wider area, strengthening the connection at the foundation level
- Purpose-built for foundation anchor bolt applications - specifically designed to replace cut washers on foundation anchor bolts, giving builders a more capable solution at these critical structural points
- Sturdy 5/16 in. steel plate thickness - the robust material thickness means the plate resists deformation under compressive load, helping maintain connection integrity over time
- Consistent quality from a trusted structural connector brand - engineered by Simpson to meet the demands of structural load transfer at anchor bolt connections, giving contractors confidence in the hardware they install
