Simpson Strong-Tie 4 in. x 4 in. 18-Gauge ZMAX Half Post Base

The Simpson Strong-Tie 4 in. x 4 in. 18-Gauge ZMAX Half Post Base is engineered to connect posts to wood supporting members for light-duty structural connections. Designed to provide reliable uplift and lateral resistance, this post base delivers a dependable connection that is significantly stronger than standard angled nailing or screw fastening. Constructed with ZMAX galvanization, this connector offers enhanced corrosion resistance for exterior and treated wood applications. The opposing nail pattern helps reduce wood splitting and eliminates the need for toe-nailing into end grain, ensuring lasting structural integrity for wood deck framing.
