Simpson Strong-Tie Ornamental 4" x 4" Post Base

APB Adjustable Post Base

Designed for use with nominal 4x4 lumber

Outdoor Accents^® adjustable post bases secure the post or column to concrete and are perfect for outdoor projects such as pergolas, patio covers and other top-supported structures. These post bases are part of our Outdoor Accents Mission Collection^® and feature decorative edges with a southwestern flair that bring design elegance to your outdoor living areas. ZMAX^® galvanized steel with a black powder-coat finish provides corrosion resistance.

The APB post bases install with the Outdoor Accents structural wood screw and patented hex-head washer (sold separately) — the only approved fastener solution for Outdoor Accents connectors. This screw and washer combination provides a decorative bolt-like connection, with the installation ease of a screw. APB models include a 1" standoff from the concrete to help avoid post-end rot caused by moisture.

• Slotted for adjustability
