The CPTZ post base incorporates a knife plate with a standoff base. It achieves a clean, concealed look while providing a 1-in standoff height above concrete. The CPTZ is installed with 1/2-in diameter galvanized pins (supplied).
The 1-in standoff height is code-required when supporting permanent structures that are exposed to weather or water splash, or in basements
The standoff reduces the potential for decay at post or column ends
The anchorage for the CPTZ can be either cast-in-place or retrofit with adhesive or mechanical anchors
Nominal post size: 6x6
Base: 12-gauge; knife plate: 10-gauge
ZMAX galvanization offers extra corrosion resistance for exterior and treated-wood applications
Install with 1/2-in anchor bolts and supplied dowels
