Simpson Strong-Tie PBV6 PBV 6-in. Hidden Standoff Post Base for Viga Post
Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie® Decorative Hardware line consists of aesthetically pleasing, pre-finished connectors and innovative concealed joist ties designed for exposed wood applications. These connectors provide structural performance and add a unique appearance feature to a project. Pre-engineered and tested, these load rated products are verified to perform to design loads, unlike custom designed and fabricated connectors. The PBV is designed to make a hidden connection between viga posts and concrete. This circular, hidden standoff post base attaches to concrete with threaded rod and epoxy to the bottom of the viga post with Strong-Drive® SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws for a secure connection.
