Simpson Strong-Tie EPB44HDGMB EPB Hot-Dip Galvanized Elevated Post Base for 4x4 (50-Qty)
Product Description
Post and column bases secure the bottom of posts or columns to concrete and are perfect for decks or patio covers. Models are available for attaching to existing hardened concrete, wet concrete, as well as wood. The cast-in-place EPB series provides a secure connection to the concrete and the code-required 1 in. standoff to help prevent rot at the post end.

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).
