Frequently Asked Questions
- What types of fasteners can be used to install the PB66HDG?
- The PB66HDG post base can be installed using either 0.162" x 3-1/2" nails or 1/2" bolts, giving installers flexibility depending on the application and structural requirements.
- Is this post base suitable for outdoor or treated-wood applications?
- Yes. The hot-dip galvanized coating on the PB66HDG provides extra corrosion resistance, making it well suited for outdoor use and applications involving treated wood where moisture and chemical exposure are a concern.
- Can the PB66HDG be used for fences or unbraced carports?
- No. 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. This connector is designed for top-supported structures only.
- Is there a minimum sidecover requirement for this post base?
- Yes. A 2" minimum sidecover is required in order to obtain the full rated load capacity of the PB66HDG post base.
