The Simpson PBV hidden-standoff post base comes in two different sizes for a variety of post shapes. The PBV6PC hidden standoff features a flat black powder-coated finish which produces a much more durable and better looking finish than standard paint.
Installation:
Post:
- Drill a 3/4″ diameter hole, 10″ into the center of the post.
- Clean out dust. Fill hole halfway with Simpson Strong-Tie® SET® epoxy anchoring adhesive.
- Insert all-thread rod and allow epoxy to set and cure.
- Secure standoff to post using four 10d nails except PBV which uses four Simpson Strong-Tie Strong-Drive® SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws.
Concrete:
- Drill a 3/4″ diameter hole per anchor design.
- Clean out dust. Fill hole halfway with Simpson Strong-Tie SET epoxy anchoring adhesive.
- Insert post subassembly into hole and allow epoxy to set and cure.
- 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).
NOTE: The correct fasteners installed in the correct position must be used to achieve published load values
