Simpson Strong-Tie PBV10PC - 10" Hidden Standoff Post Base Black
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. The PBV comes in two different sizes to support a variety of projects.

Material
Finish
- Black powder coat or galvanized
Installation
Post:
- Drill a 3/4"-diameter hole, 10" into the center of the post.
- Clean out sawdust. Fill hole halfway with Simpson Strong-Tie® SET-3G™ epoxy anchoring adhesive.
- Insert all-thread rod while twisting the rod, and allow the epoxy to set and cure.
- Secure standoff to post using four Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws (sold separately).
Concrete:
- Drill a 3/4"-diameter hole per anchor design a min. 4 3/4" from the edge.
- Clean out dust. Fill hole halfway with Simpson Strong-Tie SET-3G epoxy anchoring adhesive. Insert post subassembly into hole, and allow the 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).
