Simpson ABW66RZ Rough Cut 6×6 Adjustable Post Base – Zmax Finish

Notice – This connector is designed for Rough Cut lumber NOT nominal lumber (most common). This will only fit a post that measures an actual 6×6″. If you have a nominal post measuring 5-1/2×5-1/2″ you will need an ABW66Z Post base

The Simpson ABW66RZ Rough Cut 6×6 Adjustable Post Base – Zmax Finish is designed to securely attach wood posts to existing concrete, making it an essential component for your construction projects. This versatile post base is ideal for various applications and the additional wind uplift support makes this a good choice for jobs where both lateral and uplift resistance is necessary. Its built-in 1-inch standoff design helps prevent rot at the end of the post, ensuring durability and longevity.

One of the standout features of the ABW Adjustable Post Base is its slotted anchor hole, which allows for precise post placement, making installation more manageable. The post base can be attached using nails or Strong-Drive SD Connector screws, providing flexibility and ease of use.

This product is intended for use with Rough Cut 6×6 lumber but is also available in other sizes, including double 2x, 4×4, 4×6, and 6×6, for both nominal and rough-cut lumber.

Features:

• Increased Load Capacity: Engineered to withstand higher lateral and uplift loads, making it ideal for structures like pergolas or gazebos that require additional stability.
• Versatile Application: Intended for use with Rough Cut 6×6 lumber with a slotted base for adjustable installation.
• Enhanced Durability: The 1-inch standoff design meets code requirements and helps prevent post rot.
