The Simpson PBV hidden-standoff post base comes in two different sizes for a variety of post shapes. The PBV10PC 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
